Planning and Implementing Electronic Records Management 
Kelvin Smith

Many organizations are moving away from managing records and information in paper form to setting up electronic records management systems. There is a range of reasons for this: economic considerations may be the driver for change, or government policy intiatives may be coming into play. Whatever the whyfor in your organization, this book provides straightforward, practical guidance on how to prepare for and enable electronic records management. It sets out and explains the issues organizations need to consider and the procedures required for effective implementation.

Digital Copyright  
Paul Pedley 

Digital copyright is still a relatively new field, and is a potential minefield for information professionals. This book examines how copyright applies in the electronic environment. It asks whether digital content is treated differently than hard-copy material, and if so how. 

The second edition, now in hard copy format only, includes a new chapter that takes an in-depth look at digital rights management, taking account of the All Party Internet Group's findings public inquiry published in June 2006. It also offers a new section on copyright clearance for digital content; current examples of the penalties imposed for file sharing, piracy, counterfeiting; and more case law examples.

Blended Learning 
Tools for teaching and training 
Barbara Allan 

Information professionals currently face the challenge of providing end-user education and staff training to very large and diverse groups, whilst integrating the use of ICT into their teaching. But there seems to be a tendency within the LIS literature to focus solely on the methodologies of face-to-face learning or of e-learning, and this is a lost opportunity. 
This book offers a holistic blended learning approach, combining the best of traditional and new approaches to learning and teaching to make best use of the advantages of each while minimizing the disadvantages. It provides information professionals with a practical guide to the design and delivery of such training programmes, illustrated with a broad range of library-based examples, checklists and case studies. It will be of great value to any information professionals, whatever their previous level of experience, involved in establishing and delivering training and learning programmes and end-user education.

The Library in the Twenty-first Century 
Peter Brophy 

Drawing on the author's recent research, this timely new edition of The Library in the Twenty-first Century offers a clear new model of how traditional and electronic sources can co-exist in the library of the future, building on the previous work by focusing on the library as a vehicle for encouraging creativity as well as a provider of information resources. 
This incisive text, supported by an extensive glossary and bibliography, proposes a practical agenda of issues for the information profession to tackle, and is essential reading for both established library practitioners and LIS students, as well as for library managers and administrators across all sectors.
