SLIS is proud to announce the publication of Volume 39 of the Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST). This seminal serial in the field of Library and Information Science is edited by SLIS Dean Blaise Cronin. SLIS Executive Associate Dean Debora Shaw serves as associate editor.
The volume features a number of contributions from SLIS faculty and students, including Professor Blaise Cronin, Assistant Professor Kiduk Yang, and SLIS doctoral student Ewa Callahan.
Since 1966, ARIST has been continuously at the cutting edge in contributing a useful and comprehensive view of the broad field of information science and technology. Produced by the American Society for Information Science and Technology (ASIST), ARIST reviews numerous topics within the field and provides this annual source of ideas, trends, and references to the literature. The series encompasses the entire field in all its aspects, and topics for the annual volume are selected by the editor on the basis of timeliness and an assessment of reader interest.
