Sage Knows Social Science

摘要

SAGE Reference has come a long way since it first launched its social science reference program years ago. What started out as a modest and focused list of multivolume sets has blossomed into a diverse and robust variety of titles with an interdisciplinary approach and a clever online strategy librarians are responding to positively. Twice yearly, Rolf Janke, vp and publisher of SAGE Reference, pays LJ a visit all the way from Thousand Oaks, CA, to present new titles. During his last visit, he let me in on some exciting new e-initiatives, some already taking effect, others needing more time to mature before they can be revealed. And while we wait to see what else this maverick publisher still has up its sleeve, Janke agreed to offer some wise perspective.
