Evaluation: Intended as a means of providing other Indonesian libraries and the general public with information about recent acquisitions, in a handy format. The work should prove valuable for inter-library borrowing and lending, but as a selection tool would be limited given the small print-runs of many Indonesian publishers. Also of some value as a current awareness service for the general public
