Reviews

This book is more than just a guide to providing effective library services for research. It suceeds in setting up issues for debate while moving well beyond scholarly deliberation, bringing in voices and experiences of those working in the field today. - Information World Review In fact, I enjoyed all the quotations which are liberally scattered throughout this book. One was left with the impression at the end - that this simply was a labour of love for all involved. - MMIT Every profession needs to understand its clientele. Rarely does library literature do so as successfully as the authors of this unexpected little gem. - Australian Library Journal
