Thirty years ago, when the first edition of this book was published, little had
been written about the management of libraries and information centers.
Those seeking advice, examples, and information about how to manage libraries
were forced to search for answers in the literature of public administration
or business management. Since then, there has been a growing interest in the
topic reflected in the large number of articles and monographs published on
all aspects of management of library and information centers.
The latest edition of this management classic sports a fresh new look to complement its updated content. It continues to cover all of the important functions involved in library management and development. New chapters on marketing, team building and ethics have been added; thought provoking mini-cases and other activities introduced or expanded; and more international materials referenced than ever before. A perennial favorite in the classroom, an invaluable reference source for information managers everywhere. |
