All types of libraries are included in the new directory. The goal of this reference is to provide librarians, educators and other interested persons with a basic source of current directory type information on Mississippi libraries. The major section of the directory consists of listings for public, academic, school, special and institution libraries. In addition to basic directory information, e-mail addresses, and a schedule of library's hours of operation are included when made available by libraries. Data in the school libraries section was provided by the Management Information Systems Division of the Mississippi Department of Education and contains only brief directory information, i.e., school name, address, phone number, and the librarian or media specialist. An additional section of the directory is devoted to associations and cooperatives.
