Colleagues -- A graduate student of ours is returning to China where she will be a professor. She has been asked to compile a list of essential books in the area of computer-mediated communication for her university's library to purchase. I gave her some recommendations, but thought I would put the question to you for a broader sweep. What do you think are the books that no self respecting library with an internet studies research collection should be without? Thanks. Nancy

I gave her some recommendations, but thought I would put the question to you for a broader sweep. What do you think are the books that no self respecting library with an internet studies research collection should be without? Thanks.

Thanks, Nancy, Lennon and Peter, I've just gone through Google Books with most of the titles ('limited preview' offers a lot! of the book) on http://www.webnographers.org/index.php?title=Books. There are now 75 out of about 103 books (with 2 forthcoming) accessible via the internet at webnographers.org, openly and freely. I would install the Tor & Vidalia project web circumvention tools (out of MIT - helpful to have good bandwidth), if I was returning to China, and access these 75 interesting books for free through webnographers.org and books.google.com, to begin my library there. These are, for the most part, all essential books. Perhaps all of us will write another 100 essential books about the internet. Best, Scott http://scottmacleod.com http://worlduniversity.wikia.com Lennon Chang writes:
Who controls the Intenet-Illusions of a borderless world, 2006 by jack Goldsmith and Tim wu, Oxford University Press. But I an not sure if this book will be allowed by the government.

Colleagues --
A graduate student of ours is returning to China where she will be a professor. She has been asked to compile a list of essential books in the area of computer-mediated communication for her university's library to purchase. I gave her some recommendations, but thought I would put the question to you for a broader sweep.
What do you think are the books that no self respecting library with an internet studies research collection should be without?
Thanks.
