The experiences of many practitioners are used to make it a valuable resource for the novice as well as the experienced library media specialist."- American Reference Books Annual, "Using research and writings from the best and brightest in the field. Kearney summarizes their ideas in a meaningful fashion....This book will be invaluable to beginning professionals in learning the ropes and to veterans as they look for ways to improve their practices in these pressure-cooked days of school reform."
