Abstract
Contribution to a thematic issue devoted to the Internet and acquisitions.
As readers' advisors, librarians attempt to match users with books
they will enjoy. Typically done with fiction, this service is
important for 2 reasons: fiction circulation figures are consistently
high in public libraries; and users often rely on recommendations
for fiction reading material since the contents of novels are
not as clearcut as non fiction books, which are sorted by subject.
To be successful advisors, librarians must know their collections
and their users' reading preferences, and then bridge the two.
Librarians can learn their users' reading preferences using specific
interview techniques, and they can learn their collections using
readers' advisory aids such as the latest Web resources. (Original
