Book excerpt: Keep pace with the constant technological changes you face every day as a library technician Computers in Libraries examines the impact of integrated library management systems, digital resources, and the Internet on the functions and operations of library technicians and assistants. The book provides a practical understanding of library system software, networks, online information and access, portals, open URL linking, and the fusion of digital and print collections. Each chapter opens with definitions of the most commonly used terms and closes with review questions for classroom use, making it equally valuable as a textbook and as a professional resource for updating work skills. The roles of library technicians and assistants have changed dramatically in the past twenty years as computers have transformed every area of day-to-day library operations. And nowhere have those changes been more obvious than when dealing with online data that hasn’t undergone the same quality control and selection processes traditionally used with library resources. As ordering and cataloging processes have been streamlined, and reference and research services have been turned into twenty-four hour help centers, Computers in Libraries is a practical guide to keeping pace with the changes you face—every day, in every aspect of your work. Computers in Libraries examines: how computers work Internet protocols and applications integrated management system structure and administration acquisitions financial management online cataloging standards circulation parameters and policies course reserves serials control the Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) resource sharing standards searching online databases creating online content digital libraries and electronic publishing bibliographic standards and practices Computers in Libraries is an important resource for library professionals striving to stay a step ahead in their field and for students who will need to be up to speed on the technological aspects of library work.

Download or read book The Library Assistant s Manual Classic Reprint written by Theodore W. Koch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Library Assistant's Manual A rural visitor at the Philadelphia Library Company after gazing with open mouth at the well filled Shelves turned to the reference assistant and said in a confidential tone, Now, isn't there some book that has it all in? He was referred to the bulky and voluminous encyclopedias. N he demurred, I mean some small book. Librarians are frequently asked many questions as to the nature of their work, not only by outsiders but by people in authority who ought to know at least the rudiments of librarianship. A library is a place where people seem to be doing the greatest amount of useless work, is a remark (probably spurious) attributed to one visitor to Harvard University Library. Others seem to think that library assistants have infinite leisure to read all the books under their charge. There is apparently a need for some small book on the general subject of library work. It is hoped that the free distribution of the present booklet by the Michigan State Board Of Library Commissioners will get it into the hands of untrained assistants and library appren tices who are in need of a brief introduction to library work.
