Change has always been characteristic of serials, and now the nature and speed of that change have altered with the development of electronic technology. Inflation, automation, and changes in publishers' practices and vendors' services all make their mark on serials librarianship. "Advances in Serials Management" presents essays on current issues in various topics, emphasizing the response to change and clear communication among those who work with serials as producers, processors and users.
