Looking Forward to 1976: A Selected Bibliography on the Functions and Contributions of Libraries in American Society

Abstract

The ERIC Clearinghouse on Information Resources at Stanford University presents a compilation of bibliographies, articles, and information about the Educational Resources Information Center in a bicentennial salute to United States libraries. Bibliographies include a list of subject guides to information in a variety of formats, a bicentennial collection on the American revolution compiled by the Illinois Library Association, and a bibliography of bibliographies of American Indian materials for adults. The conclusion from the final draft of the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science's "A National Program for Library and Information Services" is reprinted, as are an article on the Ohio College Library Center (from "Library Resources and Technical Services") and one on Stanford University's BALLOTS system (from "Journal of Library Automation"). Information about ERIC includes a list of the clearinghouses, a directory of ERIC microfiche collections, and ordering information. (LS)
