Alive And Well: Revisiting Sable's "Death Of Book Selection", Okoro C. Chukwu
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
This paper revisits a debate on the role of book selection that began in the 1960s, and articles by Lawrence Thompson and Arnold Sable that reflect the two sides of the debate. The state of libraries in Africa and other developing countries due to inadequate funding argues in favor of Thompson's book selection dogma, that uses careful selection to balance the needs of users with limits on funds and space.

A Town Hall Meeting On Our Bicycle Safety Crisis, Mineta Transportation Institute
A Town Hall Meeting On Our Bicycle Safety Crisis, Mineta Transportation Institute
Mineta Transportation Institute
There is no doubt that due to rising fuel costs, more people have turned to their bicycles as an economical and environmentally-friendly mode of transportation. The increased bicycle traffic on our roads and streets has brought an unfortunate rise in accidents between cyclists and motor vehicles. One of the most effective ways to address this problem is to increase awareness in motorists and cyclists. With that awareness comes action and possible solutions. One of the best ways to increase awareness is to create an open forum in the “town hall” format. This forum, “A Town Hall Meeting on Our Bicycle …

Marketing Research As A Tool For Finding Library Users' Needs And Demands: Application Of Three Party Theory, Farzana Shafique
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
Libraries are under pressure to justify their existence and funding through customer- or market-oriented services. This requires a shift from product or service orientation to customer or need orientation. This paper explores users' needs and their opinion about an LIS departmental library, using the “Three Party Theory” of LIS marketing. Students, library service provider, and administrators were included in data collection. Suggestions for new library services are included, based on the results of the survey, focus groups, and interviews.

The Merchant Of Venice: Schools, Libraries, And Censors, David C. Kupfer
The Merchant Of Venice: Schools, Libraries, And Censors, David C. Kupfer
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
For nearly a century, teaching Shakespeare'sThe Merchant of Venice in schools has been questioned, because of perceived religious prejudice . Defenders of Shakespeare are encouraged to fight censorship with a constitutional right to read. Definers of literature are left out when a defense of the play is required. Both potential censor and concerned parent could better observe reasons to protect the play through explanations of its merits presented alongside legal discourse. The school librarian will defend controversial classics more effectively if legal and literary judgments are used together to answer the wrath of the censors.
