Media outlets demand a unique need for a library or information center within their company. Print, radio, TV and production companies can all benefit from having a dedicated person to manage their assets. This panel will discuss the significance of such collections and their growing need at stations or newspapers. We will also discuss how the economy and emerging technology has forced recent cuts in this field and the strain it places on these special libraries.
