Problem that I see is that these books are usually 1) incomplete 2) not
authoritative. How about, instead, developing a selected bibliography of
key texts in a small set of LIS topic areas?

Hi everyone!
I've been doing some work on some library-related textbooks on
Wikibooks. Would any of you be interested in lending a hand?
Here are the projects:

I think that it's important to share information about our discipline,
so that the public can gain an understanding and appreciation for what
we do. Wikibooks is an excellent platform for teaching about library
science topics, but I can't do it alone; any and all help would be
appreciated!
Let me know (email me or talk to me @
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User_talk:Sandbergja) if you have any
questions, suggestions, or comments! And please, if you have the time
and interest, visit one or two of these projects and start making a few
bold edits.
Appreciatively,
Jane Sandberg
