Book Synopsis

Aimed at library technicians and library science students, this guide covers all aspects of serials, including acquisition, organization, check-in and cataloging for automated and manual systems. Millard (manager library services, Halton Catholic District School Board, Ontario, Canada) divides the text into 12 modules that cover potential difficulties as well as basic procedures. The glossary, bibliography, and examples make this a useful reference beyond the classroom. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
