Library Journal Review

Veteran information skills instructors and novices will both benefit from this publication. Its 14 chapters comprise presentations from the 1992 "15th Anniversary of Information Literacy in ALA" program in San Francisco, pivotal publications by experts in the field, and the four winning essays in the Library Instruction Round Table's 1992 competition for innovative ideas in developing information literacy skills. Topics addressed include coping with technostress, developing critical thinking skills, and the impact of the information revolution on librarians' roles in all types of libraries. The themed bibliography and index add to the book's value as a resource manual for BI librarians. In his keynote address, sf author Robert Silverberg acknowledges the overwhelming flood of new information but offers reassurance that the emerging technologies propelling the flood will also serve as the means by which librarians will channel information into manageable forms, as they have done since the invention of libraries.‘Betty J.
