- Changing Times: Changing Libraries. Bonn, George S., Ed. Faibisoff, Sylvia, Ed. Change Agents Educational Change Futures (of Society) Librarians Libraries Library Role Social Change Technological Advancement Trend Analysis This collection of essays and responses by 18 specialists and librarians focuses on three research perspectives: (1) governmental, economic, and technological changes; (2) possible results of change in the humanities, education, and social institutions; and (3) the process of change and ways to create conditions for change. Each specialist's essay is followed by a librarian's response which highlights the essay's implications for librarians and expresses a point of view.

Thompson; The Future of Government: Trends and Emerging Conditions, by Clement Bezold; Prospects for Women in the Paid Labor Market, by Ralph Smith; Interactive Electronic Media, by Bruce A.
