[book1.jpg]Smith, Susan Sharpless.  Web-based Instruction: A Guide for Librarians, 3rd ed.  Chicago: ALA, 2010.  ISBN 978-0-8389-1056-6  025.560785 Smith 3rd ed.
Following up its first edition, which appeared in 2001, this second edition discusses recent changes in the Web and their profound impact on Web-based instruction. Throughout the book's eight chapters, which are organized to offer a step-by-step approach for planning and implementing Web-based instruction, the author discusses the design and development of different types of Web projects and instruction, project development tools, user interfaces, multimedia, interactivity, evaluation, testing, and assessment. This edition boasts a glossary; an overview of concepts related to learning theory, pedagogy, and distance learning; and discussions of new hardware, software, interactive technologies, Internet safety, file sharing, and spam.

A welcome addition is the book's expanded focus, which extends beyond academic libraries to embrace other library types. All of these improvements have produced an excellent resource notable for its practical content, thoroughness, and high readability. An indispensable work highly recommended for all library collections.

Oliver, Chris, Introducing RDA: A guide to the basics.  Chicago: ALA, 2010   ISBN 978-0-8389-3594-1   025.32
Resource Description and Access (RDA) is more than a revised standard it represents a total shift in the cataloging process as a whole. This highly practical, concise introduction will guide both catalogers and general library staff through the basics of RDA, its implementation, and its expected benefits for users and catalogers alike. Author Chris Oliver provides a contextual overview of and thoroughly explains the reasons for the switch from AACR to RDA. He outlines transition steps, the new ways in which staff will need to approach describing and creating access to resources, and important guidelines to follow after implementation. Introducing RDA: A Guide to the Basics is a much needed introductory explanation for catalogers, general library staff, and LIS students.
