Description: This book brings together recent theory, research and case studies from practice environments across the broad field of librarianship to illustrate how librarians can incorporate the principles of evidence-based library and information practice (EBLIP) into their work. EBLIP is an approach to professional decision making; however, this book emphasizes an overall approach to practice that is about being evidence based, which is not limited only to decision making.
