Synopsis
With the burgeoning of information sources and the continuing diversification of formats, finding the best information becomes increasingly difficult. This book offers professional researchers and students of library and information science a guide to approximately 1,400 of the better sources of information. Blazek (Florida State U.) and Aversa (U. of Tennessee, Knoxville) divide their sourcebook into individual sections on philosophy, religion (including folklore and mythology), visual arts, performing arts, and language and literature. Two kinds of chapters, "sources" and "access," are included within each discipline: "sources" provide descriptions of print and electronic reference tools arranged by topics and type, while "access" chapters discuss where to retrieve information by listing important collections, research centers, and organizations.
