This book is an amazing introduction to the Bard ...

Dealing with nightmaresThe book is about Sally, who is kidnapped by the cutest monster you ever saw and carried off into the hairy, scary darkness where other equally cute monsters want to eat her up. Sally confronts the monsters, who decide to play with her. The story ends with Sally falling, falling, falling, down, down, down, into her bed.
Just the idea that such a thing as falling, falling, falling is in a real book seems to reassure my kids that this is a normal dream experience and nothing to worry about. I hope this book is back in print soon! I want a number of copies myself to give as gifts.


Better than ever!

A brilliant book, I'll never see fire the same again

An essential reference

A readable presentation and useful work.The authors include a number of revealing anecdotes which illuminate what should be changes/additions in who, what, how and where libraries deliver their services.
Many ideas and issues (closing libraries in urban cities ) are old hat and have been argued against in earlier times ; in isolated situations before diversity or multiculturalism was hip. For instance ,a proposal for investigating library services to nontraditional library users and libraries in an urban area as a doctoral project circa 1980 was not encouraged . In fact the proposal was blown off - dismissed - with a couple of lame reasons .
However , with the twenty first century just around the corner it may be possible that those who are interested or concerned about a more diverse library profession in the new century will read this most readable seminal work. Diverse library professionals can create and deliver information, information services, and information technologies more effectively to a diverse population . Another outcome of the reading of the work may be that more library professionals are motivated to change their attitudes and assumptions or at the very least have their awareness level raised.
One of the best things about the book is its descriptions of diverse participants practices, activities, responses and counter responses where the diverse voices and stances emerge and perhaps can be honestly examined in an effort to work together for future resolutions .
Mixing statistics, interviews, and commentary, the authors discuss the under representation of minority information professionals which unacknowledged and not addressed will continue to effect unfavorably the number of practicing minority information specialists and their sensitivity ( to services, collections, communications, etc.) for minority information users .
