1. Blount, Gail, comp. Collective Bargaining in Canadian Education: An Annotated Bibliography. (OISE Bibliography Series, 1). Toronto: Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, 1975. 38p. Index. $3.00. ISBN 0‐7744‐0114‐1. This bibliography of 180 items presents “as broad a coverage as possible of past, current, and future developments in collective bargaining, as it relates to Canadian education” (p. vii). The time scope is primarily the last five years; in effect, it updates and extends the Canadian Teachers' Federation Collective Bargaining for Teachers (Ottawa, 1971) and Hazel Roberts Collective Bargaining in Higher Education — A Bibliography (Ottawa, Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada Library, 1974). There are eight sections that follow prefatory matter—professional involvement, history and development of teacher associations, teacher militancy, collective bargaining at elementary, secondary, and university levels, the various documents and legislation for each province, plus 4 bibliographies. Most of the provincial material deals with Ontario. All graphic forms are covered: books, research reports, theses and dissertations, pamphlets, periodicals, speeches, government documents, and ERIC reports as well as videotapes, Each has a clearly written indicative abstract of 50 to 100 words, and most items are in the OISE library (and consequently may be borrowed on OISE's terms [p. ix–x]). One deficiency: the bibliographic data does not contain pagination nor other collation information (except for periodical articles).
