LVM welcomes a new host, following the departure of Nora Rawlinson to become Book Review Editor at Library Journal: Angela Stribling. Her upbeat overview sets the stage for a wide variety of serious and light library story fare. This issue opens with a penetrating look at the FBI's Library Awareness program -a hot topic in the library literature over the past two years. Then it's off to the Country Music Foundation and Library Center in Nashville, TN, where holdings run from scholarly tomes on C & W music to autographs and other memorabilia of the stars. "Birmingham: An Affirmative Action" focuses on the efforts of the Birmingham Public Library to implement an affirmative action plan to increase the number of black librarians employed by the library- a successful effort which garnered the library an award from the city. In the last two segments, two pressing concerns for librarians are examined: the dissemination of information about AIDS and the phenomena of latchkey children. Another solid issue of reporting from the LVM team. Highly recommended. (Available from: ALA Video, 50 E. Huron St., Chicago, IL 60611.)
