Leadership and Learning: Helping Libraries and Librarians Reach Their Potential
ISBN: 9780810841468 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite the proliferation of cyber-this and digital-that, many people prefer to learn by face to face communication, and to acquire job-related skills and knowledge in their own workplace. Why? Perhaps because the abilities to talk, listen and explain clearly-in short, to communicate-are given equal shrift. Or because a fostering of these abilities is the responsibility of everyone in that workplace. Or even because, pragmatically speaking, such training can be done easily with a minimum of infrastructure and support. Whatever the reason, Lyndon Pugh's Practical Training Techniques speaks...

Music Classification Systems
ISBN: 9780810842632 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Problem of Information: An Introduction to Information Science
ISBN: 9780810845688 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Information can be conceptualized in two fundamentally yet contradictory ways_it appears in the world as both a physical and a cognitive phenomenon. The dilemma information specialists face is similar to that of physicists who must cope with light as both a wave and a particle. Unlike physics, however, information science has yet to develop a unified theory that unites the contradictory conceptions of its essential theoretical object. While there are numerous books today that address information science as a scholarly discipline, for the most part they assume a prior knowledge of the field....

Akers' Simple Library Cataloging
ISBN: 9780810847378 / Angielski / Miękka / 375 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. New in paperback In this fundamental revision of Susan Akers' classic, the authors give the rules for using Dewey Decimal Classification tables clearly and briefly. They do not suggest all the ways of cataloging a small library, treat LC classification or subject headings (or other systems), or explain the use of computers in cataloging, but they do discuss the continuing impact of automation on even the smallest library's catalogs. The discussion and examples-- almost all new--reflect AACR2, Sears (11th ed.), and Abridged Dewey. Cloth edition published in 1984.
