About the Book

As we face the new millennium, we must reassess the role of learning. The Net Effect addresses the changing needs of learning communities. This collection of over forty essays offers strategies and resources for dealing with issues such as censorship, electronic collection development, children's literature and the Internet, using MOOs in education, the school library home page, and changing roles within the profession. These presentations formed the basis of a groundbreaking Virtual Conference coordinated by the editors in 1997. The range of topics is broad and the debate is solid, revealing that teacher librarians across the world are on the cutting edge of education, that issues are the same or similar the world over, and that there are a range of viable viewpoints and possibly solutions to the problems facing all librarians.

Review :
School librarians will appreciate this series of essays...a good strating point for a library school student to identify and examine a current topic...Recommended. The range of topics is broad, with public and school librarianship put into a formal context with historical introductions. This book is highly RECOMMENDED!! This book would make an excellent text for school library media courses. Teacher-librarians who want a quick and easy look at how the Internet affects school libraries might find these papers useful... ...unique collection...very instructional...a worthwhile purchase. This book is a useful resource for librarians who are learning about the Internet and the issues that they will have to confront... The issues raised and the possible solutions given in these presentations are relevant in 2000 and raise thought-provoking questions about the direction we should take as a profession if we are to remain integral to the teaching and learning situations in our schools.
