The essays presented in this volume all center around the challenges of publishing, acquiring, digitizing and describing resources related to Eurasian and East European cultures. Most of the chapters were presented at the University of Illinois at Urbana‐Champaign in June 2006; others at a 2006 Slavic Librarians Workshop and various associated forums. The chapters are divided into four sections:
- 1.
two chapters on publishing;
- 2.
three chapters on acquisitions;
- 3.
five chapters on digitization; and
- 4.
two chapters on metadata.
This is a very interesting collection of essays, focused on a relatively little‐known subject area within librarianship.
