Download or read book Book Use Book Theory 1500 1700 written by Bradin Cormack and published by Joseph Regenstein Lib. This book was released on 2005 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What might it mean to use books rather than read them? This work examines the relationship between book use and forms of thought and theory in the early modern period. Drawing on legal, medical, religious, scientific and literary texts, and on how-to books on topics ranging from cooking, praying, and memorizing to socializing, surveying, and traveling, Bradin Cormack and Carla Mazzio explore how early books defined the conditions of their own use and in so doing imagined the social and theoretical significance of that use. The volume addresses the material dimensions of the book in terms of the knowledge systems that informed them, looking not only to printed features such as title pages, tables, indexes and illustrations but also to the marginalia and other marks of use that actual readers and users left in and on their books. The authors argue that when books reflect on the uses they anticipate or ask of their readers, they tend to theorize their own forms. Book Use, Book Theory offers a fascinating approach to the history of the book and the history of theory as it emerged from textual practice.

Download or read book A Practical Guide To Library Management written by Ram Nivas Kumar and published by Ram Nivas Kumar. This book was released on with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Library management is not a new concept. Evolved with the inception of library, its original concept that lacked systematic procedure and scientific application has undergone a remarkable change. In this circumstance, we need such a book as it may meet the new requirements of the students and the professionals of Library Science. Though, lots of books are available on the subject, yet there is not such a single book as it may contain all issues relating to the library management. In this situation, it becomes very difficult for the students to read so many books on one subject. Hence, I decided to write such a book as it may contain all important issues in brief to facilitate the students and other readers. This book is intended to serve the important need of the present day learners and professionals of library management. An attempt has been made in this book to give the learning on almost all issues of good library management. In a nutshell, the book has been made broad-based in order to serve the needs of a wider section of students. It would be helpful to improve the achievement level of students of Library and Information Science. CONTENTS 1. Meaning of Library 2. Public Library System in India 3.
