Constantia Constantinou, Michael J. Miller, and Kenneth Schlesinger, (Eds.) International Librarianship: Developing Professional, Intercultural, and Educational Leadership This collection draws on case studies from American librarians who traveled to Central America, the Caribbean, Central Europe, Africa, the Mediterranean, and Asia to participate in librarianinitiated and sponsored projects. The book offers insight into how their experiences might serve as templates and promote best practices in collaborations within the library profession in the United States and abroad, and it also demonstrates how international experiences can enliven home institutions upon return.
