Product Review
This is a fine guide to the process of purchasing and supporting a database product, especially in a special library. This provocative and enjoyable book is recommended reading for special and academic librarians." Journal of Academic Librarianship "Each chapter of Data Bases for Special Libraries contains very useful and practical advice and suggestions. The time-lines and step-by-step instructions to "keep on track" are excellent. Ms. Moulton tackles a awesome topic and manages to contain in 154 pages relevant, on-point, non-frivolous guidance.

Product Review
"A first class overview of all the issues involved in building a database. . . . It is overall an great book particularly useful for the librarian who got their degree before such things as relational data structure and data normalization were included in GSLIS's curricula--but the experienced professional will benefit greatly as well, as will any librarian involved in designing and implementing a system (not just for special libraries). It is clearly written by someone who has been there." - Michael E. D. Koenig, Dean Graduate School of Library and Information Science Rosary College
