ISBN 0–87352–256–7; 0–87352–257–5 pa. So many of us in the field of library science owe our jobs to the fact that others articulate their own need to know; reference work itself arises out of this logical need. Many questions we answer involve the simple, “what?,” “when?,” and “where?” More complicated question‐and‐answer interactions deal with “why?” and “how?” Through interviews with one editor and one chapter author, this essay will invert the reference process upon itself and show the why and how involved in the conception and realization of the reference work entitled Victorian Periodicals: A Guide to Research.
