Connie Van Fleet | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

A tribute to the library profession, this festschrift explores the various service roles of professional librarians. Presented in three parts, A Service Profession discusses the roles in support of scholarly communication, examines library and information science organizations, and suggests strategies for developing leadership within the profession. Kathleen de la Pena McCook, John M. Budd, and Dana Watson offer perspectives on the processes involved in scholarly publishing. Opportunities for professional action through organizations are explored by Danny P. Wallace, Joseph Mika, and Bert R. Boyce. Connie Van Fleet and Donald E. Riggs underscore the importance of personal commitment in developing excellence in libraries today and in the future.
