Off the Sidelines, Onto the Playing Field.

Schuman, Patricia Glass

School Library Journal, v36 n2 p32-35 Feb 1990

Summarizes nine papers commissioned by the Department of Education for "Rethinking the Library in the 1990s." Common themes include user education, technological and social change, public policies, and changing roles for librarians. It is argued that these papers, which address adult services, need to be critiqued in terms of library service to children and youth. (CLB)
