Synopsis

A non-technical survey of librarianship for the non-professional. The text of this edition has been revised to include current developments such as the future of the Net Book Agreement, affiliated membership of the LA, inter-active media, the national curriculum in schools, and the Further and Higher Education Act. The book includes sections on library legislation in Scotland and Northern Ireland, the British Library, and other UK National Libraries, local government developments in England and Wales, income generation in libraries and the role of information centres. A new chapter has been included on national and international library associations and on UK educational bodies. This book is aimed at students of the City and Guilds of London Institute Library Assistant's Certificate, the Business and Technology Education Council's National Certificate option module on Library Work, and also for managers in charge of in-service training and induction programmes, and those needing an overview of library activities, such as teachers in charge of school libraries.
