um Distinguished Service to Research Award. Wilhoit, a former editor of Journalism Abstracts, continues to direct the Journalism Library at Indiana University and is assistant professor at the School of Journalism. Their preface notes that the bibliography serves three primary purposes: 1) a reference source, 2) a research and reading list, and 3) a collection management and buying guide. "All entries have one common factor: they treat the subject in broad general terms." Chapters include "General Communications," "Broadcasting Media," "Print Media," "Film, Advertising and Public Relations," "Bibliographies, Directories and Handbooks," "Journals," and "Indexes to the Mass Communication Literature." Topics not covered (unless in the course of discussing broader mass communications subjects) are censorship, law, copyright, printing, post office, instructional broadcasting, and telephone and telegraph. Entries are descriptive and detailed. In the citation to Douglass Cater's The Fourth Branch of Gouernment (no. 59), for example, it is revealed that Cater was one of the early writers to realize the importance of the reporter's role in government, as exemplified by the Washington journalist. As a Washington reporter himself who was working at the time for The Reporter, an analytical fortnightly, he observed and participated, so that his book is written from first-hand knowledge. It is this attention to detail that makes Mass Media Bibliography so indispensable. When used as a buying guide, the only problem one might encounter is the lack of purchase price and ISBN numbers. Author, title, and subject indexes are exhaustive. So is everything else." (Jo A. Cates: Journalism - a guide to the reference literature. Englewood, Col.: Libraries Unlimited, 2nd ed. 1997 nr. 12)

s well as commercial printers, throughout Africa, South Africa excepted for the last name group." In all, 4,621 institutions and organizations are represented. Data varies according to the type of organization or institution and completeness and accuracy also vary because, the editors tell us, 45 percent of addresses failed to update their entries or retum the questionnaire. These cases are indicated with a dagger or asterisk. Even so, it provides a formidable amount of information. Librarians proved the best respondents; consequently data about libraries is more likely to be the most complete. Arrangement is alphabetical by country. Appendixes include a subject index to special libraries and to periodicals and magazines, and listings of book clubs, awards and principal dealers in African books in Europe and the U.S. Text is in English and French."
