Intended for use by both librarians and students in LIS programs*, Academic Librarianship Today* is the most current, comprehensive overview of the field available today. Key features include:

  • Each chapter was commissioned specifically for this new book, and the authors are highly regarded academic librarians or library school faculty— or both
  • Cutting-edge topics such as open access, copyright, digital curation and preservation, emerging technologies, new roles for academic librarians, cooperative collection development and resource sharing, and patron-driven acquisitions are explored in depth
  • Each chapter ends with thought-provoking questions for discussion and carefully constructed assignments that faculty can assign or adapt for their courses

The book begins with Gilman’s introduction, an overview that briefly synthesizes the contents of the contributors’ chapters by highlighting major themes. The main part of the book is organized into three parts: The Academic Library Landscape Today, Academic Librarians and Services Today, and Changing Priorities, New Directions.
