A HANDBOOK FOR MEDIA LIBRARIANS
Katharine Schopflin, editor
Media companies, producing vast quantities of content in an increasing variety of formats, need people not only to help them fill up column inches, pages or hours, but also to organize this content afterwards so that it can be found again. Although unlikely to be called 'librarian' - 'researcher', 'media manager' or 'information manager' are more likely titles - information professionals carry out this task for media organizations throughout the world.
This practical handbook, the only one of its kind, explores the issues of central importance facing media librarians, archivists, cataloguers and researchers in their working lives. With chapters contributed by frontline practitioners who have experienced the problems for themselves, it covers media libraries in the 21st century, managing intranets, picture libraries and librarianship and much more.
