College and Research Libraries 162 I College & Research Librades • March 1981 port College) are less self-consciously re- lated to educational reform . All are useful descriptions of specific program develop- ments which reflect a sophisticated course- related/course-integrated approach to li- brary instruction. The articles reflect how the library can both respond to educational change and be a catalyst for change. This volume , like the previous proceedings, in- cludes the EMU library director's introduc- tion to the conference, Carolyn Kirkendall's state-of-LOEX (Library Orientation and In- struction Exchange-the clearinghouse for information on the conference subject ), Hannelore B. Rader ' s annual annotated bibliography of the library orientation and instruction literature, as well as A. P. Mar- shall's always stirring "sermon" on librarians as educators . Buried among these familiar aspects is Richard Dougherty ' s paper " Getting a Larger Slice of the Budget Pie for Library Instruction ." This analysis of the real world of competition for a piece of the library's budget is on target. Every instruction li- brarian should read the article and take its points to heart . Library and academic administrators can read this volume and sense the variety and high level of development that has occurred in the field. Library instruction is no longer the special program of a few institutions , and this volume reflects that . Practicing in- struction librarians should scan the contents for those choice suggestions and specific ideas that will help them improve their pro- grams. They will not be disappoint- ed.-Thomas G.

Walter Ristow, retired chief of the Geography and Map Division in the Library of Congress , has been a prolific and valu- able contributor to the literature in the field of maps over the past forty years. Though ,_., most of his published works are in the areas ,.,hf cartobibliography and the history of car- tography , he has also written numerous papers on various aspects of map librarian- ship. It is from the latter area that the selections for this book are drawn. Essen~ tially a collection of reset reprints of articles written by Ristow from 1939 to 1979, The Emergence of Maps in Libraries provides fresh access to widely scattered, mostly out- of-print material. The thirty-five essays have been arranged in seven parts, touching on most of the daily issues facing custodians of map collections and also giving a history of the development of this branch of special li- brarianship. Well written and readable, these selections, while often a summary of the state of the art at the time they were written, provide the reader with biblio- graphical references for further exploration of the topic. The variety of periodicals from which these essays were taken and the varied levels of approach testify to the mul- tidisciplined audience for cartographic in- formation. It is frequently illuminating to read arti- cles on a particular subject published over the course of many years , and some sections of this volume are well served by this approach. " Part I: History and Develop- ment of Map Librarianship," written at ten- year intervals , for example, benefits from the immediacy of Ristow's assessments of the profession. The same is true in "Part IV: Reference and Bibliographical Services," where the selection of articles aptly demon- strates the correlation between historical events and the demands made on a carto- graphical collection and its keepers. Some sections, however, are not so well served. "Part Ill: Technical Services" con- tains articles written from 1966 to 1979. The selections that discuss the Geography and Map Division ' s work and progress with machine-readable map cataloging were writ- ten in 1966 and 1971. Much has happened in this area of librarianship in nine years. Though the introduction informs the reader of the time gap in this particular instance and of the potential for similar anomalies in other areas, it would seem that the 1980 imprint places certain editorial responsibili- ties on the publisher-in this case, a post- script or a supplementary bibliography. The user of this volume , then , must al- ways keep in mind the year in which each selection was written.

An example is Lawrence Martin's biographical study of John Mitchell, which includes a cartobib- liographical study of Mitchell's map of 1755. On page 215 of a piece first published in 1950, Ristow suggests the summer of 1952 as a probable date for the appearance of the Martin study. It was not published at that time , however. In Ristow's article "John Mitchell's Map ... " in A la Carte,* one discovers that Martin died before his manu- script could be edited and published, that the manuscript itself had disappeared, and that Ristow was obliged to compile the 1972 article on Mitchell using work previously published by Martin. Given the variety of data available in this volume it is unfortunate that editorial short- comings will reduce its usefulness. It is puz- zling that Shoe String Press, a publisher of library materials, has omitted an index. Ris- tow ' s articles were originally written to *A la Carte; Selected Papers on Maps and Atlases , compiled by Walter William Ristow (Washington, D .C.: Library of Congress , 1972). stand alone , and there is a wealth of in- formation included in each piece that is not reflected in its title. An index is always de- sirable, but in this case it is a necessity and the absence of even a simple guide is a se- rious oversight. These omissions are more arresting be- cause Shoe String Press went to the effort of resetting the texts of these thirty-five articles instead of publishing a facsimile re- print. There is no sign of any further input on their part , however . While the press' concern with form is appreciated, the lack of editorial concern with content is appar- ent.-Susan L.
