ODLIS: Online Dictionary of Library
and Information Science |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Created by Joan M. Reitz, "ODLIS is designed as a
reference resource for library and information science professionals, university students
and faculty, and the general reader and library user. The primary criterion for including
a new term is whether a librarian or other information professional might reasonably be
expected to encounter it at some point in his (or her) career. The technical vocabulary of
publishing, printing, book history, and computer science has been included when, in the
author's judgment, a definition might prove helpful, not only to library and information
professionals, but also to laypersons."--About ODLIS. |
