It gives you timely facts about how librarians and users work together and how those partnerships are built.

Further establishing the marketability of contemporary research librarians, Business Reference Service and Sources goes to the front lines of business reference service, solidifying and updating the librarian-user partnership. You’ll see how research librarians can reach users at the crux of their needs. Overall, individual chapters address the needs of such people as students, business school officials, and corporations.

Certainly, Business References and Sources will convince you that collaborative projects between contemporary reference librarians and end-users are alive and well.
