This is a "thematic, refereed annual covering current issues, emerging trends, �best practice� and future scenarios in the broad field of library science and information management." This volume consists of five parts: people, principles and problems; electronic publications, access and acquisitions; co-operative collection management and storage facilities; evaluating and weeding; preservation and archives. Within each part there is a chapter written from a list of distinguished contributors from around the world, and an international editorial advisory board supports their work. It will be of value to practitioners and students, and is an example of good book design.
