Embedded librarianship, in which librarians partner with groups to identify information sources in knowledge-intensive projects, is not a new concept, but Shumaker (library and information science, Catholic U. of America) draws on his research to identify the characteristics, principles, and best practices of successful embedded librarians in public, academic, medical, corporate and other specialized library settings. The book includes a foreword by the CEO of the Special Libraries Association, exercises for assessing embeddedness level and readiness for change, and strategies for change. Updates are available on the author's blog. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
