Publisher's Synopsis
This annual helps librarians answer reference questions related to rankings information. Working from a bibliographic file it includes thousands of items from periodicals, newspapers, financial services, directories, statistical annuals and other printed material. The "top 10" from each of these rankings appears in this volume, grouped under standard subject headings for easy browsing. Readers can quickly locate all rankings in which a given company, person or product appears by consulting the reference's comprehensive index. In addition, a complete listing of sources used to compile the annual is provided in the bibliography. Each edition includes a cumulative index, published separately.
