Synopsis

This second edition of the standard text covers the practice and development of librarianship and its relationship to information sciences, organizations, technologies, ethics, policies, providers and clients. Rubin (library and information science, Kent State U.) describes new information about metadata, digital libraries and digital rights management, UCITA, information architecture and policies such as the Patriot Act. He addresses issues of public, academic, university, and special information systems and libraries, how libraries work within organizations, and the challenges they face in technologies, mission, and policies. Although not available for this review, the publisher can supply CD-ROM with instructional materials to instructors for use in the classroom or in distance education.
