Basic Historical and Bibliographical Methods for Librarians
About this book
History is a major research methodology in library and information science. Library and information science research covers both the media gathered and coordinated as well as those who use these media. Thus, the history of books and printing and other media, the history of the library as an institution, and the history of the use of resources and libraries are all topics within the legitimate domain of library history. Providing an innovative, real-world tactic that makes the research problem and method pertinent and valued to the reader, this book provides a simplistic overview of historical and bibliographical methods used in library and information studies and integrated fields.
