Holy Heroes! -- About the Authors. 520 $a Comic book properties continue to dominate popular culture, and there has been continued growth in the academic field of Comics Studies. Graphic novels and comic trade paperbacks populate the shelves of many academic libraries. Single issue collections of "floppy" comic books, however, tend to find their home in special collections libraries because their flimsy construction, highly acidic paper, and, occasionally, the scarcity of certain specific issues warrants special storage and handling. Thoughtful consideration must go into any decision to begin or sustain these collections. Comic Books, Special Collections, and the Academic Library collects best practices for the acquisition, preservation, storage, and cataloging of comics, particularly single-issue (or floppy) comics, within the special collections units of academic library collections. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Acquisitions (Libraries) 650 0 $a Library materials $x Conservation and restoration. 650 0 $a Cataloging of special collections in libraries. 700 1 $a Flota, Brian, $d 1975- $e editor. 700 1 $a Morris, Kate, $d 1982- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Comic books, special collections, and the academic library. $d Chicago, IL : Association of College & Research Libraries, 2023 $z 9780838939512 $w (OCoLC)1402815426 $w (OCoLC)1402815426 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717025654.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=62864F04440211EF98CC15ED37ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
