International Information : Documents, Publications, and Electronic Information of International Governmental Organizations, 2nd Edition Hardback
by Peter I. Hajnal
Hardback
Description
Publications of international governmental organizations (IGOs) are among the most difficult documents for librarians to acquire, organize, and use.
This revised work examines the documentation, publications, and computerized information services of major IGOs, such as the United Nations, the European Union, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, the League of Nations, the International Development Research Center, and the G-7.
Special attention is given to the consequences of recent institutional restructuring and retrenchment.
The book covers institutions, resources, and processes.
Chapters discuss the organizational and functional characteristics of IGOs; examine their available resources, including documents now available through electronic sources; and explore the role of the private sector and institutions outside the IGOs in providing access to IGO information.
Hajnal also discusses collection development and reference and information work.
