Media Reviews
This book provides a clear introduction to information science for students unfamiliar with the concepts and their importance to society. High school and community college counselors and university undergraduate advisors will find it useful.... Recommended for high school, public, community college, and academic undergraduate libraries. * American Reference Books Annual *
[This book] is designed to guide students to an understanding of how to manage the increasing avalanche of information and the often bewildering advances in associated technology, and to help students identify and select appropriate training careers in information science.... Information Science 101 is the most comprehensive coverage of the topic that I have seen....I would recommend it to everyone involved in teaching of information science as well as the students. This is thoroughly good value. * Australian Library Journal *
