Description
A step-by-step guide to working with vertical files and its alternatives based on Shirley Miller's "Vertical Files and its Satellites", second edition (Libraries Unlimited, 1979), this volume introduces new resources, new products and new techniques, and serves as a guide to specific kinds of supplementary materials. The general approach and the coverage of topics has been changed, placing the emphasis on alternatives. The text offers tips on locating resources; techniques for labelling, filing, weeding and circulating material; information on their organisation, treatment and preservation; and ideas for handling and promoting special collections. Practical in its approach, this volume is written so that the volunteer in a small library can understand it, but it also has suggestions for the experienced librarian in a specialised setting.
