New Publication - Caribbean Libraries

One of the more important happening in the last six months has been the publication of
Caribbean Libraries in the 21st Century: Changes, Challenges, and Choices.


This publication provides a multicultural, multiethnic perspective on the state of and development of libraries, library services and librarianship in the Caribbean region. It is only the 3rd such publication and this is by far the most comprehensive and inclusive. It incorporates twenty-five articles by forty contributers. I co-author a chapter in this work. Its an imporatant contribution to the literature of librarianship of and in the Caribbean region. Have a look at the TOC.

The editors Cheryl Peltier-Davis and Shamin Renwick received an Acurialean Award for the publication.
