Summary
This third edition contains what I consider to be the most relevant, informative, and digestible nuggets from the literature of librarianship. About 95% of WLH3 is completely new or substantially revised, and the book is a solid 48 pages thicker than the last one. In WLH3 you will discover such new features as the oldest and largest national libraries, secrets of the Freedom of Information Act, the protohistory of information retrieval, how to provide library service to the poor, how to cultivate donors, how to repair compact discs, how to be an ethical archivist, and plentiful facts on library cats, library postcards, and library ghosts.
