Providing perspectives of early- and mid-career librarians as well
as highly seasoned professionals, this book offers leadership
advice that will help academic librarians of all experience levels
to surmount the issues they face and overcome new challenges.
Academic libraries and librarianship have dramatically evolved in
recent years—in everything from their collections and facilities
to their relationships with faculty and internal and external
partners. These changes demand different mindsets and new skills on
the part of librarians. This book explains how the quality of
leadership is the key component of successfully implementing
innovative service and practices—and as a result, of the success
of the library itself. To that end, it offers practical guidelines
for implementing leadership principles and achieving success in
this evolving culture. Coedited by a team of three highly
experienced academic librarians, Leading in the New Academic
Library gives actionable advice regarding subjects like helping
staff gain new competencies, leading from the middle, and
succession planning. The content also addresses hot topics such as
the academic library's new role, the integration of IT into library
organization and infrastructure, making data-driven decisions,
renovating a library space to meet changing user needs, and
collaborating with internal as well as external partners.
