About this book

Are academic branch libraries going to be extinct in the near future? In these difficult economic times, when collections are digitized rapidly, is there still a need for a separate unit within proximity to the department, school, or college with a subject-based or subject-specific collection? This book gives a brief historical overview of the role of a branch academic library. It reviews the current situation from a practitioner's point of view and suggests solutions for the future.

Contents

- Historical overview of academic branch libraries
- Types of branch libraries
- Most common subject branch libraries
- Assessment/review of viability of branch libraries
- Future of academic branch libraries
