Research libraries face many challenges in today's declining
economy. The essays in this book explore these challenges and were
originally delivered at a conference entitled "Climbing Out of the
Box: Repackaging Libraries for Survival," sponsored by the
University of Oklahoma Libraries and held March 4-5, 2010, in
Oklahoma City. The authors, recognized leaders in academic
librarianship, broach sensitive, but necessary, discussions in how
academic libraries provide services and resources today while
planning for the future. As academic libraries continue to
transform, each of the cases included provide specific examples of
strategies used to place libraries in a position of competitive
values for future research, teaching, and learning in higher
education. Each situation is unique to the culture and economic
conditions of particular institutions. However, the research cases
provide all academic librarians with examples of how our libraries
can repackage roles and content in order to survive in the
twenty-first century. This book was originally published as a
special issue of Journal of Library Administration.
