Are looking for some professional readers' advisory literature? I recently read "Back to the Future? A Response to Dilevko and Magowan" by Barry Trott and Neil Hollands. This article examines Dilevko and Magowan's history of readers' advisory and reinforces the true nature and purpose of the contemporary readers' advisory services. Other readers' advisory articles are available through the Reference and User Services Quarterly website.

RUSQ - Readers' Advisory

Thanks for the mention of the article, David. For readers interested in RA, I would mention that RUSQ has a readers' advisory column every issue, featuring articles that address the theory and practice of RA. It's a great reason to consider becoming a member of ALA's Reference and User Services (RUSA) division.
