Pulp friction
"In 'Pulp Friction', a highly provocative and frequently humorous collection of essays, Blaise Cronin scrutinizes the world of North American librarianship, excoriating its excesses and inconsistencies. From pornography and censorship to the idiocies of accreditation; from feminist scholarship to the rhetoric of the digital divide; from faculty status for librarians to developments in electronic scholarship; from information warfare to the role of the American Library Association, this book is an engaging tour of 'Libraryland'. ... ideal for professional librarians, library science faculty, library users, and all those who care about the nature and role of the library in contemporary society."--Back cover.
