Case, Beau David Change Electronic Publishing Electronic Text Information Technology Library Acquisition Library Collection Development Library Development Library Material Selection Library Policy Library Research Media Selection Selection Tools Library literature from the late 19th century to the present offers numerous guides to materials selection.
