This book is for those who have been hesitant to acquire streaming media or feel that they need to evaluate their current strategies regarding streaming media. The book’s stated purpose “is to address the logistics of providing steaming video for the library” (1). The book breaks down the key aspects into ten chapters and includes bibliographic references and an index.
