Covering every essential topic ranging from circulation and literacy instruction to reference and security, this benchmark text provides an up-to-date, broadly based view of library public service and its functions. Supplying essential, foundational reading for students of library public services as well as an up-to-date overview for practitioners who wish to refresh their knowledge or acquaint themselves with a new area of responsibility, this book's broad and solid coverage will benefit anyone concerned with developing or maintaining the public face of the library. A revision and expansion of Libraries Unlimited's Introduction to Library Public Services: Seventh Edition, this edition has new chapters covering such topics as e-resources, collections, print and other media, and facilities and funding. Additionally, every chapter has been substantially updated and reorganized to better reflect the role of technology in library services today. The book begins with background information on public services in libraries and an analysis of the library's public service philosophy. Then, the authors delve into staffing and assessment of services, moving logically to major functional areas of public services—reference, instruction, document delivery, circulation and reserves, collections, programming, safety and security issues, and facilities and funding. Real-life anecdotes from public, academic, and school libraries illustrate principles and concepts throughout the book. For each topic, the authors detail its role and philosophy, and offer key points to remember, references, and lists for further reading.

This book offers the most dynamic, simplest way to teach students the concept of the Super3, enabling them to effortlessly remember and apply it to their educational or everyday life. Information literacy and effective problem solving are increasingly important skills for students to have. The Super3 strategy of "plan, do, and review," created by Mike Eisenberg and Bob Berkowitz, brought information literacy to young children and made an abstract concept easy to understand and apply. Now this book can revolutionize the way teachers teach the concept of the Super3 for outstanding results in both the classroom and school library environment. The Adventures of Super3: A Teacher's Guide to Information Literacy for Grades K-2 contains a collection of dynamic lesson plans that library media specialists or classroom instructors can use to teach problem-solving strategies to children in kindergarten through second grade. Problems range from finding the meaning of a word to picking the right pet for a family. Each lesson contains performance objectives, lesson time-frame, engagement, activities, closure, assessment, and suggested children's literature. Also included are printable materials for each lesson and a DVD with two entertaining animated shorts.
