Serials Information From Publisher to User

The emphasis of this informative book, proceedings of the third NASIG conference, is on serials publishing. By exploring the relationships among the librarian, publisher, and vendor, this book builds a better understanding of these three positions. Discussions include the economics of journal publishing, the challenge of cataloging computer files, and the current developments in the bibliographic control of serials. Technical processing, cataloging, pricing and budgeting, and career development topics are also explored.
