Rating: 4.5/5 from 4 reviews Who determines what categories are listed with a book?Why on earth is this book in the business and investing category? It's about library science, for goodness' sake! Extremely helpful!I found Katz Introduction to Reference Work, Volume II to be extremely helpful when it came to the finer points of reference work; Especially well written was the chapter concerning the reference interview. Katz has an amazing ability to turn mundane subjects such as the chapter on the rules of the search and turn this easily boring subject into something quite enjoyable. The chapters are very well written and he, Mr. Katz, has an amazing ability to write so that the novice librarian, i.e., student can understand the main points of each chapter. Thank you, Mr. Katz for writing an indispensable book. The bible of Reference WorkWilliam Katz's Introduction to Reference Work : Basic Information Sources (Introduction to Reference Work : Basic Information Sources, 7th Ed) can be justly called the bible of reference work. In this book, Mr. Katz has been able to introduce the novice librarian to different sources and tools in the field of reference work. The chapters are very well written and the examples are extremely helpful. | ||||||||||||||||||
