Focusing on one of the most fundamental areas of librarianship Gorman and a host of distinguished contributors examine the current state of the field of technical services and offer their views on its future. The book is divided into four sections: acquisitions bibliographic control automation and administration. Within these sections individual chapters address specific aspects of the field (e.g. serials acquisitions descriptive cataloging circulation services). The text has been thoroughly updated with some chapters entirely rewritten and others replaced. Specialized chapters on book gathering plans preservation and Slavic technical services have been dropped from this edition and a chapter on global standardization has been added. Offering a stimulating diversity of voices and perspectives this landmark work is a major contribution to the area of technical services in the tradition of Tauber s Technical Services in Libraries (Columbia University Press 1954).

In the shadow of the financial crisis public opinion has been calling for reform of banking privacy and international tax agreements. The subject has created diplomatic crises between nations and tensions in financial markets. One of the figures at the centre of the debate is the Franco-Italian banking IT technician Herv Falciani. In 2008 Herv Falciani left his job at the Swiss branch of HSBC taking with him - without authorisation - a hard-drive containing a database of 130 000 named bank accounts held by citizens from 180 countries. This database found its way into the hands of many world governments. The purpose of this film is to examine the tax debate in a critical and engaging but also a balanced way. ...Falciani s Tax Bomb: The Man Behind the Swiss Leaks ( Falciani s Tax Bomb )
