Peer reviewedWiegand, Wayne A. – Library Quarterly, 1999
Reviews the history of United States librarianship. Suggests that the profession has failed to analyze the meaning of library service and its significance to users. Argues that this has limited the ability to understand the present role of the U.S. library and thus affects efforts to plan for the future. Contains 131 references. (Author/LRW)

Peer reviewedRayward, W. Boyd – Library Quarterly, 1986
Argues that the academic goals and commitment to interdisciplinary research as a rationale for the new University of Chicago Graduate Library School as described by Douglas Waples in "Library Quarterly" (1931) have yet to be fully achieved. It is concluded that a new graduate library school ought to be reinvented. (Author/EM)
