College and Research Libraries 478 I College & Research Libraries • September 1979 that we will eme'rge as the masters, not the servants, of the new technology. This paper alone is worth the price of the book. The rest is gravy. -Gregory N. Bullard, Syra- ctise University, Syracuse, New York. McCoy, Ralph E. Freedom of the Press: A Bibliocyclopedia. Ten-Year Supplement (1967-1977). With a foreword by Robert B. Downs. Carbondale: Southern Illinois Univ. Pr., 1979. 557p. $42.50. LC 78- 16573. ISBN 0-8093-0844-4. Without question, Ralph E. McCoy has rendered an invaluable service to society in his latest book, Freedom of the Press: A Bibliocyclopedia. This magnificent publica- tion is a ten-year supplement to his earlier work Freedom of the Press. The present volume contains some 6,500 entries and fol- lows the pattern, format, and scope of the 1968v~ume. , Although the author calls it a bibliocy- clopedia, this opus could well be called an encyclopedia in the field of intellectual freedom. It is an annotated bibliography of books, journal articles, pamphlets, newspa- pers, dissertations , films, radio, television, recordings, and other materials. The annota- tions are descriptive, and, whenever possi- ble, they summarize, in the author's own words, the major points of the work being reviewed. The format of this edition follows that of the earlier work in its alphabetical listing by personal or corporate author or by title, if the author's name is not known. A compre- hensive subject index , at the end of the volume , identifies topics, individuals, coun- tries, court decisions, concepts, and titles. The continuing interest in intellectual freedom is demonstrated by the fact that more than half as many publications relating to freedom of the press in English-speaking countries appeared in the past ten years as in the previous four hundred . Robert B. Downs, dean of library admin- istration emeritus, . University of Illinois, himself an authority and champion of intel- lectual freedom, in his foreword to this vol- ume, comments on issues and problems in the field in the past decade. He reviews and analyzes several of the most vital of these that developed between 1967 and 1977. Among these were freedom of the press questions raised by publication of the Pen- tagon Papers, press gag orders, fair trial versus free press, the individual's right to privacy, rights of special groups, obscenity and pornography, and others. The library/information science profession and all people who are interested in free- dom owe a great debt of gratitude to Ralph McCoy for this work, Freedom of the Press. It has been called a magnificent book, an indispensable reference work, "without doubt the most complete and most useful annotated bibliography ever produced on the topics of freedom and censorship in mass communication." In the opinion of this reviewer, it is all of these and is a book that should be a "must" purchase in every type of library.-Martha Boaz , University of Southern California, Los Angeles. Mcinnis, Raymond G. New Perspectives for Reference Service in Academic Libraries. Contributions in Librarianship and Infor- mation Science, no .23. Westport, Conn .: Greenwood Pr., 1978. 351p. $24.50. LC 77-9474.2. ISBN 0-313-20311-3. ISSN 0084-9243 . Academic librarians as well as classroom faculty members will profit from reading Mcinnis if they are able to get through the work. The librarian who believes that the library has a significant role to play in undergraduate instruction will have this view supported. The library administrator who wonders how to evaluate the large ex- penditure of resources that library instruc- tion consumes will have some new ideas to ponder. The librarian who questions all of this instruction interest in academic libraries and the classroom instructor who would like to make teaching at the introductory level more reflective of the excitement of a disci- pline will both come away with an apprecia- tion of what the academic library is able to do as part of the active learning process. Without a doubt, Mcinnis presents the background required to understand how li- brary research can be integrated into classroom teaching, but his presentation is circuitous and is made much more difficult than is necessary. His insistence on footnot- ing almost every sentence, which leads to eighteen-page chapters with eighty foot- notes, and his practice of using long quotes '79 & '80 REPRINTS 1979 REPRINTS IN PREP.

Huntington. N.Y. 11743 U.S.A. 480 I College & Research Libraries • September 1979 combine to obscure the positive aspects of the work. In addition, Mcinnis' own writing style is unnecessarily complex. Consider the following sentence from the introduction: Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the tripar- tite matrix of research materials is that even though a plethora of intermediary sources is produced-all of which expose various forms or stages of the literature to which they are related-taken together, their function and struc- ture relate directly to the substantive- bibliographic continuum. [P.xxiii]. Such a presentation slows the reader to a crawl. In a discussion of what this work is not, it may also be useful to state that it is not about all aspects of reference service in academic libraries. It is a work about library instruction. It is not about library instruc- tion in all disciplines. Mcinnis discusses the social sciences, but it could be argued that the techniques described might be trans- ferred to other fields even though there is little attempt to do that. While Mcinnis makes these limitations clear in the intro- duction, a reflection of the scope of the work could have found its way to the title page. Now that the reader recognizes that the work in hand is, for the most part, a long and complex bibliographical essay that ad- dresses the role of the academic librarian in undergraduate instruction but is limited to examples from the social sciences, the ques- tion becomes, Is there a reason to wade through it? The answer is yes. At first glance it appears that the work has five main parts, but upon closer inspec- tion it becomes clear there are but two. Mcinnis first establishes how social scien- tists know, how the literature of the social sciences is developed, how reference works reflect portions of the literature of a disci- pline, and how users of reference works put them together to perform a structured analysis of the literature and of the ideas of the field. With this background, Mcinnis of- fers ways to integrate classroom instruction and library research so that both the in- structor and the librarian share in teaching the student the bibliographical and the sub- stantive knowledge of a selected topic. The section on application is focused on Mcinnis' use of published, structured re- search guides that he has developed to reflect the discipline that a specific guide in- troduces. The guide is presented to the stu- dent by the librarian, who, rather than just handing it out, takes time to explain how scholars know; how they produce materials that represent ideas; how these ideas are communicated, reviewed, and are eventu- ally accepted; and how reference works in the correct mix will lead the student to the · new ideas of the field. This is no easy trick in the few hours available to the librarian, but it is an ap- proach that makes sense and one that should make more discriminating literature users out of the undergraduates as well as out of some of their instructors. The Mcin- nis approach serves to make the librarian a full partner in the learning process. These two basic sections of the work are followed by an extensive appendix that pro- vides examples of portions of the structured research guides used by Mcinnis. It is difficult to read Mcinnis word for word, and in the end one will want more examples and less explanation. Still, the ideas establish a rationale and a plan for li- brary instruction in the undergraduate li- brary that should help, guide, and support those reference departments that are ex- pending precious resources in library instruction.-Scott Bruntjen, Pittsburgh Re- gional Library Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsyl- vania.
