Much of the recent literature on cultural heritage focuses on the governmental and international bodies that preside over heritage policy; in contrast, this volume offers something new by providing a practical guide for how library and information sciences can be used in specific heritage management practices. . . Selected chapters would be useful as a primer for undergraduates in a heritage studies class and for those researching specific geographically or thematically situated topics within heritage studies. Individual chapters contain enough historical background and author-specific definitions of key terms like intangible heritage to be assigned as stand-alone chapters in a course on cultural heritage. This edited volume brings together an array of multidisciplinary perspectives that cover a broad swath of research relating to cultural heritage management.

This book provides a commendably broad overview of the cultural heritage discipline that will be of great use to students and practitioners alike. It is readable, authoritative, stimulating, erudite and global in focus. It traverses and enables comparisons across all the main streams of cultural heritage, from built heritage through movable and documentary heritage to intangible heritage, addressing topics as diverse as folklore, indigenous heritage, community engagement, digital heritage and international legal protections.— Adrian Cunningham, former director of Digital Archives, Queensland State Archives, Australia
