Product Description
Questioning Library Neutrality: Essays from Progressive Librarian presents essays that relate to neutrality in librarianship in a philosophical or practical sense, and sometimes both. They are a selection of essays originally published in Progressive Librarian, the journal of the Progressive Librarians Guild, presented in the chronological order of their appearance there. These essays, some by academics and some by passionate practitioners, offer a set of critiques of the notion of neutrality as it governs professional activity, focusing on the importance of meaningful engagement in the social sphere.

An excellent resource on a timely subject, Mar 18 2009
By Wolfsegg - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Questioning Library Neutrality: Essays from Progressive Librarian (Paperback)
This is a fine collection of essays on a topic that is gathering steam both in and out of academia. A diverse group of librarian/authors considers the philosophical implications of neutrality in the public distribution of information. One of the few books devoted entirely to the subject.
