About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. Since its initial publication this text has served as an essential resource for both LIS students and practitioners. Journal of Hospital Librarianship deemed it 'a librarian's dream... very forward-thinking.' The new fourth edition offers an updated, comprehensive examination of the myriad of basic skills effective library managers must exercise throughout their careers. Throughout, G.Edward Evans and new co-author Stacey Greenwell pay close attention to management in 'new normal' straitened economic conditions and the pervasive impact of technology on a library manager's role. Coverage includes: a new focus on how being in the public/non-profit sector influences the application of management basics such as planning, accountability, trust and delegation, decision-making, principles of effective organizational communication, fostering change and innovation, quality control, and marketing the managerial environment, organizational skill sets, the importance of a people-friendly organization, and legal issues key points on leadership, team-building, and human resource management budget, resource, and technology management management ethics, with a lengthy discussion of why ethics matter and tips for planning a library career, with a look at the work/life debate. This book, to quote Australian Library Journal, is 'a recommended text for library science students, but is also an excellent source of information for career librarians wanting to refresh their knowledge of library management in a fast-moving information services environment.'
