وصف الكتاب | This professional publication represents the broadest discussion of video collection development in libraries currently available. It provides detailed descriptions and discussions of resources, policies, concepts, and issues central to the practices of building and managing video collections in public, academic, school, and special libraries. Background discussions include the impact of video on society, the role of video in multi-type libraries, and the uses of video to meet special client needs. Also included are extensive listings of print, non-print, and institutional resources to assist librarians and educators in selecting, evaluating, and acquiring both mass market and independent video, as well as more elusive and specialized materials. This work fills a gap in the professional literature on the topic of video librarianship, giving both theoretical and practical information. Librarians and educators will gain knowledge on developing video collections in different types of libraries, the nature of the video market, and approaches for selecting materials. |
المراجعة التحريرية | This collection of essays is an excellent grounding in the fast-evolving field of media as found in today's expanding library. - ARBA 2003 "Divided into seven sections, with chapters exploring the nature of video; the differences in video collection development at the public, school, and academic library levels; specialized collections and special user needs; policies, criteria, and methods for selecting, evaluating and acquiring video; contrasting looks at the home and and institutional video markets; reference tools and other resources; and speculations about the future, this weighty tome (in both senses) combines stiring philosophical arguments underscoring the importance of video collections in libraries, as well as a treasure chest of practical tips and techniques for the working video librarian. Highly recommended." - Video Librarian "Video collection for libraries is a complicated matter. This new edition of Handman's work can help librarians, administrators, students, and video aficionados make sense of the issues and practices that confront anyone utilizing video for business or pleasure.... Should be required reading for everyone who has to negotiate the video maze." - Booklist/Professional Reading "Librarians adding video to their collections, particularly if they are doing so reluctantly, need to read this book.... Handman has compiled a comprehensive collection of experience and insight from more than two dozen librarians on policies, issues, and resources necessary to build useful video collections in school, public, academic, and special libraries.... Even experienced media and collection development librarians will find new and helpful information and resources here. This is an essential purchase for all public and academic libraries." - Library Journal, Starred Review |
