The analysis of the management activities and effectiveness of the
academic library director in Joanne Euster's The Academic Library
Director is a fine companion to Rook's work on motivation. Indeed
Euster even identifies several key leadership types that
characterize certain library directors. Her analyses of those
types, and in particular her witty mottoes for each, are a delight.
. . . Euster's work is, though, a serious one that is worth serious
attention. It is a solid analytical study of how academic library
directors operate and what impact they may have on the operation
and effectiveness of a library. . . . Her short concluding chapter
on the implications of her study offers some extremely valuable
insights for university administrators and faculty, library staff,
library educators, professional associations, and even directors.
Wilson Library Bulletin Although working within a framework largely
predetermined by institutional requirements and standardized
procedures, the academic library director confronts opportunities
and challenges that offer a wide scope for individual creativity.
Joanne Euster's new book analyzes the contribution of the
director's personal leadership style and management skills to the
successful operation of college, university, or research library.
Based on the author's award-winning study of the activities and
effectiveness of academic library directors, it is the first
full-length examination of the subject.
