Reviews:

• [T]his book provokes further reflection with regard to professional practice, and is a worthy addition to a professional collection.
  —Journal of Access Services 2005
• Over the years, this essential reference volume has provided a forum to update the field, explore current issues, and provide reference information, and the current editors have maintained that function by updating educational technology in the K-12 arena, in higher education, and in business and industry....The function of any annual is to keep us up to date, and this one does the job well. It belongs in larger collections at the district level but needs to be more than just a shelf sitter. Therefore, rotate it among the teacher-librarians in your building.
