Now available in paperback! The Administrative of the Public
Library is a comprehensive approach to contemporary public library
concerns. It combines theory and practical advice as it addresses
in a simple, logical, clear, and jargon-free fashion public library
policies, procedures, resources, and human relations. Based on the
premise that library administration entails not only familiarity
with management principles, but intimate knowledge of the products
and processes for which it is responsible, the book covers input
functions-collection development, technology, technical services;
public services-outreach information, circulation, youth, readers;
as well as important traditional management topics-staff,
directors, finance, buildings, and public relations. All of these
are developed within a system, political, historical, and social
context. The text uses as its model Guy R. Lyle's Administration of
the College Library and is designed for students and practicing
librarians alike.
