214 College & Research Libraries March 2013 or online identity in social media), and additional transferable skills (in presenta- tion, technology, and language). In “The Job Search” section, the discussions are how to survive in the job search process in different environments such as academic libraries, public libraries, federal and state government agencies as well as special and nontraditional library sectors. These areas range from preparing resumes and cover letters to taking interviews on site or on Skype. Resources and an index are provided in the back of the book to facili- tate readers’ further exploration. Although “What Employers Want” is a catchy main title for this book, the subtitle “A Guide for Library Science Students” explains the rest of the publication more specifically. In fact, there is only one chapter with seven pages to elaborate “What Employers Want.” Readers may be disappointed if they expect to take a glimpse of what specific skills or cur- rent trends employers are looking for in various job positions. Along with this, the theme on the subtitle is a bit narrow for library science students. Most library studies programs are now renamed as library and information science studies to reflect the evolving work environment and job descriptions of librarians beyond traditional library activities. Overall, this book is timely in that it came out during a slow job market. Besides talking about the job search, this book advocates that students should think ahead about their career as soon they start taking classes. This publica- tion is not only a guide for library and information science graduates to prepare themselves for various facets on job search in librarianship, but also for anyone thinking of a career as an information professional. The book will also serve as a useful reference resource in employ- ment collection in any library, academic or public.—Judy Li, University of Tennessee.

This collection of detailed, technical essays is the go-to text for any library director and/or librarian who wishes to optimally digitize a collection of any sort. From the very beginning of the book, the editors make a convincing case that digitized collections are not of the one-size-fits-all variety. Rather, digitized collections should be carefully tailored to meet the particular research needs of the library’s own user constituency. There- fore, it is crucial that administrators and IT professionals conduct well-designed user studies before embarking upon a project that could be entirely—and ex- pensively—wrongheaded. To best articulate this argument, the ed- itors have aggregated twenty-four essays that demonstrate various perspectives on user studies, as well as different models for orchestrating them. Furthermore, the text provides invaluable charts that delineate the methodologies suggested by the chapter authors. The authors of these essays hail from all over the world: the United Kingdom, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, Italy, Malta, Canada, Israel, Scotland, Switzerland, Greece, and Hungary, thus providing truly inter- national perspectives on the area of user studies. The essays are presented in five fundamental parts of the text. The titles of the parts and the impressively lucid introduction are themselves illuminating. Part One, “Setting the Scene,” does pre- cisely that: it provides readers with a firm foundation and context for apprehending and critiquing the ensuing chapters. Part Two, entitled “Methods Explained and Illustrated,” supplies numerous ex- amples of successful methods for evalu- ating the needs of digital library users. Standard assessment such as question- naires and focus groups receive mention. Perhaps more unexpected and provoca- tive are other methods such as “deep log analysis” and “eye-tracking” of users. Deep log analysis provides decision mak- ers with data gleaned from the “digital Book Reviews 215 footprints” that indicate the complexities of information-seeking behavior of actual users. Eye-tracking involves study of the eye movements of users and methods for capitalizing on the data yielded regarding user research behaviors. Part Two also offers the intriguing notion that digital library planners can create an image of the persona of a typical library user, thereby enabling them to extrapolate informa- tion based on the research needs of this paradigmatic user. “User Studies in the Digital Library Universe: What Else Needs to Be Consid- ered?” is the section header for Part Three. The chapters contained therein explore evolving issues that challenge planners for the library of the future. How, for instance, do children learn, and how do li- brarians accommodate their new learning styles that are enmeshed in technology? What about the implications of social me- dia and the mobile devices that facilitate communication by means of social media? Moreover, how might digitization affect the process of course design and subse- quent research techniques? These are but a few of the hurdles that digital librarians must consider and overcome. Part Four, “User Studies Across the Cultural Heritage Sector,” focuses atten- tion upon complex decisions beyond digi- tization of traditional libraries. How, for instance, do library users research archival material? Incontrovertibly, the needs of these users should be taken into account when devising digitation of archives. In addition, how might digital technology influence users’ experience of museums? What about digital art and digitization of audiovisual collections? Present and future needs of users must be taken into account when designing digital collections for optimal user research results. Finally, Part Five echoes the Introduc- tion. Entitled “Putting It All Together,” it summarizes the content of the text. Fur- thermore, it indeed offers inspiring sug- gestions for putting it all together. Helpful checklists remind readers of where they have been, and, better still, where they are—or should be—headed in the future. Ultimately, User Studies for Digital Library Development raises all of these crucial considerations and more. Its mul- tifaceted approach supplies ample food for thought, especially for library direc- tors, emerging technologies librarians, and IT personnel who may be charged with designing a vital digital collection that addresses, and even anticipates, specific research needs of the individual library’s users. Anyone involved in digital decision-making would be ill-advised to ignore the sorts of user studies so ably advanced in this fine collection.—Lynne F.

Questions of copyright are extremely prevalent in libraries and can be chal- lenging for librarians to answer. Laura N. “Lolly” Gasaway has long been a re- nowned expert in this field, and, in her po- sition as the Paul B. Eaton Distinguished Professor of Law at UNC-Chapel Hill, she has written and lectured extensively on topics related to copyright, law librarian- ship, and related issues. Among her many writings on copyright law and its applica- tion to libraries is her ongoing “Questions and Answers” column in Against the Grain, a journal for librarians, vendors, and publishers that is related to the Charleston Conferences. This book is the first in the new Purdue University Press Charleston Insights in Library, Archival, and Information Sciences series that will feature content emerging from Against the Grain; and it collects, organizes, and indexes Gasaway’s answers to copyright questions that she has addressed in the column over the past fifteen years. The questions were submitted by staff at a wide range of libraries and other
