Description and Table of Contents

Description

Whether the issue is building, managing, or evaluating the reference collection, this practical guide should make the process easier. The first section covers all the basic elements: identifying users and determining their needs; selection criteria; tools for selection and review; budget allocations; and online reference services. The second section provides the building blocks themselves: an annotated list of approximately 300 sources, presented in four categories. The first is a core list for all school levels. The remaining three list basic reference sources for elementary, intermediate, and high school levels.
