Reviews
The purpose of this book is to describe and explain how information specialists' (librarians) can and do serve people in their work setting, by seeking and earning a place on the team or in the group in question. ... Neway starts with a long chapter on the history of this type of work. She then has chapters on the team approach' in the social sciences and humanities, scientific research, medicine, and business. Another chapter summarizes the common elements found necessary to succeed as a team member. The concept of the librarian carrying information to people before they know they need it is entrancing, and this is the best book yet on the subject. Neway's 23-page bibliography of over 300 items is indeed comprehensive, and she cites from these sources constantly. The book is well written and will appeal to a wide audience. -Library Journal ?The purpose of this book is to describe and explain how information specialists' (librarians) can and do serve people in their work setting, by seeking and earning a place on the team or in the group in question. ...
