Managing the Library: Strategic Planning and Practice


Overview

Library management is a sub-discipline of institutional management that addresses the unique challenges encountered by libraries and library management professionals. Significant managerial functions within this field include planning, negotiation, interlibrary loan systems, material acquisition, and the maintenance of library stacks. Many of the issues encountered in library management are similar to those experienced by non-profit organizations. Tools that facilitate data storage, retrieval, and tagging within a library are referred to as constructs, and examples studied in this discipline include master catalogs, domain catalogs, indexes, identifiers, and artifacts. Additionally, the design, construction, and evaluation of libraries are integral aspects of library management. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of library management. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline and how such concepts have practical applications. This book, with its detailed analysis and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
