review: Editorial Reviews Review "Packed full of useful tips, knowledge, and guidance ... An essential resource for any academic or public services librarian." ― ARBA "The writing throughout the book is clear and eminently readable ... Here is a valuable resource for both students and practitioners." ― Technicalities "Distinctive to the book's approach is that it bases its analysis on processes rather than formats ... This book is what it claims: a basic overview, direct, and easy to read that should be an essential book for the practice of collection management in libraries, given its comprehensive vision and the substantial resources it makes available." ― Doody's About the Author Vicki L.
