Intended as a practical tool for anyone who wishes to improve the education and training of children's librarians, this collection of reports is designed to provide ideas on how to analyze an education for children's librarians and tools for elaborating an education resting on local knowledge. The reports present the main features in the training and education of children's librarians in nine countries representing various stages of library development and different economic systems. In addition, each report is prefaced by a brief description of the economic, educational, and geographic conditions of the country being discussed. These reports provide descriptions of children's librarianship in the following countries: (1) Australia (Barbara Poston-Anderson); (2) Colombia (Margarita Munoz); (3) Cuba (Olinta Ariosa Morales); (4) German Democratic Republic (Irmgard Dressler); (5) Nigeria (Virginia W. Dike); (6) Norway (Inger Cathrine Spangen); (7) Spain (Nuria Ventura); (8) the United States (Selma Richardson); and (9) Zimbabwe (Roger Stringer). Also included is "Education and Training--Why and How? A Model Prepared for the Section of Children's Libraries," by Eva Glistrup (Denmark), Lena Skoglund (Sweden), and Inger Cathrine Spagen (Norway). An outline of a curriculum for the training of children's librarians that was distributed to the contributors of these articles is appended. (KM)

Among the problems that Third World countries face is the need to integrate education--especially programs that promote basic literacy--into the development process. Part of the challenge is to create programs in library and information studies that are not wholly derived from First World institutions and ideologies but spring from the needs of the very different societies they are intended to serve. In this book, Horowitz offers the first detailed assessment of the role of librarianship in a nation struggling to overcome underdevelopment. Through her systematic rethinking of the conceptual basis of library and information studies, she provides a practical synthesis that reconciles opposing views and establishes the validity of Third World perspectives in their own right.
