A very comprehensive reference book for librarians serving Asian students and communities. It is also useful for library and information science students looking for literature on comparative librarianship in East Asia, Southeast Asia and South Asia. -- Lourdes T. David, member, Board of Librarians, Professional Regulation Commission, Republic of the Philippines, former director, Rizal Library, Ateneo de Manila University This is a very useful book for librarians who serve Asian populations in the U.S., as its population is becoming increasingly diverse. This reference source is really handy for library professionals to serve Asian users anywhere in the world. Highly recommended for all types of libraries. -- Haipeng Li, University Librarian, University of California, Merced
