THE RESOURCES OF NOSTALGIA: LOCAL STUDIES LIBRARIES

Abstract

Within the framework of the Reference, Special and Information Section, the Library Association now has an organisation which can put the views of librarians who have special responsibility for local studies. It has become apparent that the problems facing such librarians in metropolitan areas differ somewhat from the situation experienced by local studies librarians in the Shire Counties. The organisation of local studies differs widely both between these types of authority and within authorities themselves.
