| Abstract: | The authors interview librarians and out-of-print book dealers to find out how out-of-print academic titles are being handled. Librarians discuss successful strategies and various ways of identifying and pursuing out-of-print titles needed in their collections. Vendors and book dealers address the special needs of libraries, plus their methods of finding OP books. Recommended OP search strategies include advertising, using reference works, using vendors and dealers, and searching both Internet and Web databases. The report concludes with a listing of dealers that were mentioned favorably by academic librarians. |
