The Emerald Handbook of Modern Information Management

Library and information professionals present an integral text for masters of library science students and a reference for information professional practitioners, but warn that it does not encompass all modern information theories, procedures, and practices. Whether read sequentially or in topical combinations around common themes, they say, the chapters provide a construct through which both students and practitioners may learn about the major challenges facing them in the early part of the 21st century, and find some guidance in how to tackle them. -- Annotation 2018 * (protoview.com) *
