Comprises studies on the bibliographic control of various collections (e.g., films, museum materials, publications in African languages), background information on interlibrary cooperation, and an essay on improved online access to Africa-related materials in undergraduate collection. A companion to an exhibition developed by the American Museum of Natural History, the sophisticated text and stunning illustrations (249 in all, 128 in glorious color) trace the art history of northeastern Zaire from before the first encounters with Europeans in the 1870s to the present. The authors contrast the traditional design aesthetic with the naturalistic and representational style of art that flourished after 1900. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
