Includes coverage of subjects as diverse and vital as the history of librarianship, its development as a profession, the ethics of information science, cataloguing, reference work, and library architecture

Encompasses encyclopaedias, dictionaries, directories, photographic surveys, statistical publications, and numerous electronic sources, all categorized by subject

Offers appendixes detailing leading professional organizations and publishers of library and information science literature.
