Title

Small public libraries : suggestions for reference service improvement

Source

Reference librarian. 1988, no.21, S.31-44

Year

1988

Abstract

Small public libraries can improve their reference effectiveness. By establishing a strong, integrated, 'low-profile' community information service, as well as the development of a modest on-line searching service, the small public library can go beyond its own walls to reinforce its status as the primary outlet for knowledge and research in the community.
