Book excerpt: LIBRARYSPEAK An Up-to-Date Glossary of 2500 Terms Used in Librarianship And Information Management Librarians now need to understand the terms used by the Information Technology specialists who work in libraries; and IT specialists need to learn the technical terms used by librarians. LibrarySpeak provides simple definitions for all the terms required for each group of library workers to understand the others. It is designed as an accessible and convenient quick reference for students, new library staff, and even old hands as they encounter new terminology. Existing glossaries and dictionaries generally focus on library science or computing, rarely a combination. And they are usually large, heavy, detailed, and expensive. LibrarySpeak provides students especially with an economical, light but comprehensive volume that they can carry with them to class, and get the general idea of specialized vocabulary as they encounter it. LibrarySpeak is an up-to-date glossary of 2500 librarianship and information management terms used especially in North America. It defines and explains essential terminology of library collections, equipment, automated systems, the Internet, and national and international organizations and programs. This is a reference book that should be in the hands of every library student (professional and paraprofessional), and every library and library classroom should have at least one copy. It is also useful for training school media center staff, including in-service training and continuing professional development. Author: Mary Mortimer is a librarian, library and Internet trainer, author, and multimedia developer. She has managed libraries and taught for many years, and has consulted widely with colleagues and students in compiling this glossary.

Book excerpt: A timely call for recovering the true meanings of the nineteenth-century terms that are hobbling current political debates "Masterful. . . . James cuts through the tangled terminological and conceptual jungle of modern globalist discourse . . . [with] fascinating discussions of the origins and meanings of the words."--G. John Ikenberry, Foreign Affairs "James delves into the often-surprising intellectual origins of key concepts in the arguments about globalisation--and illuminates the debate in the process."--Gideon Rachman, Financial Times, "Best Books of 2021: Politics" Nationalism, conservatism, liberalism, socialism, and capitalism are among the most fiercely debated ideas in contemporary politics. Since these concepts hark back to the nineteenth century, much of their nuanced meaning has been lost, and the words are most often used as epithets that short-circuit productive discussion. In this insightful book, Harold James uncovers the origins of these concepts and examines how the problematic definition and meaning of each term has become an obstacle to respectful communication. Noting that similar linguistic misunderstandings accompany such newer ideas as geopolitics, neoliberalism, technocracy, and globalism, James argues that a rich historical knowledge of the vocabulary surrounding globalization, politics, and economics--particularly the meaning and the usefulness that drove the original conceptions of the terms--is needed to negotiate the gaps between different understandings and make fruitful political debate once again possible.

It’s 1936, in Flint Michigan. Times may be hard, and ten-year-old Bud may be a motherless boy on the run, but Bud’s got a few things going for him: 1. He has his own suitcase full of special things. 2. He’s the author of Bud Caldwell’s Rules and Things for Having a Funner Life and Making a Better Liar Out of Yourself. 3. His momma never told him who his father was, but she left a clue: flyers advertising Herman E. Calloway and his famous band, the Dusky Devastators of the Depression!!!!!! Bud’s got an idea that those flyers will lead him to his father. Once he decides to hit the road to find this mystery man, nothing can stop him—not hunger, not fear, not vampires, not even Herman E.
