Cloth, 8vo, 23 cm, 125 pp. From the blurb: "This carefully researched book represents a professional response to the growing interest of scholars, historians and collectors in the preservation of printed ephemera - material that in contemporary society is often regarded as disposable 'junk', but which, put in an historical context, can be very instructive and revealing about social conditions and attitudes. By concentrating on certain major areas of ephemera collections-postal history, pictures of domestic appliances, non- book materials in housing, for example - the author succeeds in providing general guidelines for locating and discusses different methods of organising the materials. This book, which originated in a British library research investigation, will be of particular value to librarians, collectors of ephemera and those wishing to carry out research into collection.
