Desk-Bound

Synopsis

Aims to persuade people to use the library before beginning to collect new data. Does not consider the details of the stock of any particular library, or what are the best sources on any specific topic, believing that these things can only be learned from experience in the light of particular information needs. Prompts individuals to clarify these needs, and to find out which information sources can meet them.
