  • Those working today in the business of library acquisitions will find the topics in this volume familiar, yet thought provoking; those working outside the acquisitions chain, as well as students in library school will be enlightened by the breadth of topics covered. The volume, which includes a detailed index, is well organized with helpful editorial summaries at the beginning of each topical section.
    —Library Collections, Acquisitions, & Technical Services     2005
Description: This book presents the conference proceedings of what is arguably the most influential and highly regarded conference in the U.S. library world. Always well attended and managed, the Charleston Conference attracts the leading figures of the library world and library-servicing businesses. The conference's focus is collection management, a topic that has grown increasingly complex since traditional collection management expanded to include various electronic publications.
