About the Book

Based on the highly acclaimed reviews of American Reference Books Annual, RRB features only those resources that have been recommended for purchase by small and medium-sized academic, public, or school libraries. Written by over 200 subject specialists, the reviews will help librarians quickly identify the best, most affordable, and most appropriate new reference materials in any given field. All reviewer comments-both positive and negative-have been retained, since even recommended works may be weak in one respect or another. If your budget precludes ARBA, this tool will provide you with the necessary information needed for your collection development needs. Features 530 critical reviews of reference books, CD-ROMs, and websites from the years 2006–2009 written by academic, public, and school librarians or professionals in the field. The reviews are selected based on their appropriateness for school libraries, small college libraries, or small public libraries (i.e., lower priced, highest quality, etc.), and feature a coded letter (i.e., C, P, S) indicating which type of library it is recommended for. The reviews are pulled from ARBA 2009.

About the Author :
Shannon Graff Hysell

Review :
. . . a core addition to the internal library staff reference collections and a mandatory reference work for college and university Library Science collections. For librarians, Hysell provides 540 abridged critical reviews of recommended reference books for small and medium-sized libraries and media centers. Drawn from American Reference Books Annual 2009, reviews are written by academic, public, and school librarians and professionals and include general reference books and dictionaries, encyclopedias, indexes, directories, bibliographies, guides, atlases, gazetteers, and other books, CD-ROMs, and websites in the social sciences, humanities, science and technology published in the US and Canada from 2006-2009. Regional guides in the biological sciences and travel guides are excluded. A designation for recommended types of libraries is given for each. This book is perfect for today's librarians who might not have time to sift through thousands of reviews and who also are on a limited budget.
