Books, Buildings and Social Engineering: Early Public Libraries in Britain from Past to Present
ISBN: 9780754672074 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Public libraries have strangely never been the subject of an extensive design history. Consequently, this important and comprehensive book represents a ground-breaking socio-architectural study of pre-1939 public library buildings. A surprisingly high proportion of these urban civic buildings remain intact and present an increasingly difficult architectural problem for many communities. The book thus includes a study of what is happening to these historic libraries now and proposes that knowledge of their origins and early development can help build an understanding of how best to handle...

The Early Information Society: Information Management in Britain before the Computer
ISBN: 9780754642794 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Whether termed the 'network society', the 'knowledge society' or the 'information society', it is widely accepted that a new age has dawned, unveiled by powerful computer and communication technologies. Yet for millennia humans have been recording knowledge and culture, engaging in the dissemination and preservation of information. In The Early Information Society', the authors argue for an earlier incarnation of the information age, focusing upon the period 1900-1960. In support of this they examine the history and traditions in Britain of two separate but related information-rich...

Libraries of Light: British Public Library Design in the Long 1960s
ISBN: 9780367193034 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) For the first hundred years or so of their history, public libraries in Britain were built in an array of revivalist architectural styles. This backward-looking tradition was decisively broken in the 1960s as many new libraries were erected up and down the country.
In this new Routledgebook, Alistair Black argues that the architectural modernism of the post-war years was symptomatic of the age’s spirit of renewal. In the 1960s, public libraries truly became ‘libraries of light’, and Black further explains how this phrase not only describes the shining new library designs – with their...

Understanding Community Librarianship: The Public Library in Post-Modern Britain
ISBN: 9781859722435 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In the information society, is the community focused library a real possibility? This book reappraises the relationship between the library and its communities through an examination of the rise and decline of a communitya librarianship over the last three decades. The authors consider key models of community based library service and argue that bland assertions of community prevalence mask a complex and problematic relationship between a highly traditional public service bureaucracy and its users. The resulting uncertainty of purpose, they claim, explains much of the current a crisisa of the...

The Cambridge History of Libraries in Britain and Ireland
ISBN: 9781107693692 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 762 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The Public Libraries Act of 1850 founded a tradition of public provision and service which continues today, and national and academic libraries have grown and multiplied accordingly. Libraries have become an industry rather than a localized phenomenon, and librarianship has developed from a scholarly craft to a scientific profession. The essays in this volume present a picture of great diversity, covering public, national, academic, subscription and private libraries. The users of libraries are an important part of their history and are considered here in detail, alongside the development of...

The Theory of Committees and Elections by Duncan Black and Committee Decisions with Complementary Valuation by Duncan Black and R.A. Newing
ISBN: 9780792381105 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 457 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) R. H. Coase Duncan Black was a close and dear friend. A man of great simplicity, un worldly, modest, diffident, with no pretensions, he was devoted to scholarship. In his single-minded search for the truth, he is an example to us all. Black's first degree at the University of Glasgow was in mathematics and physics. Mathematics as taught at Glasgow seems to have been designed for engineers and did not excite him and he switched to economics, which he found more congenial. But it was not in a lecture in economics but in one on politics that he found his star. One lecturer, A. K. White,...
