Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Edward Abbott Parry (1863-1943) was an English judge and dramatist.
Major changes in public libraries throughout the world have led to
an increased focus on governance issues. Forging successful futures
for public libraries depends on effective governance. This book
defines governance and examines its many facets in relation to
public library provision internationally, differentiating
governance from the policies, processes and practices of public
libraries. The perspectives of leaders, practitioners, researchers,
decision makers, and service users are presented, offering a
variety of views from the past, the present and potential
approaches in the future. Decision-making and the roles of decision
makers involved in governance are explored. Prominent figures from
the public library community throughout the world have contributed
their knowledge and experience. Wicked problems facing the public
library sector are identified and the varying approaches adopted
internationally to deal with them are outlined. There are many
practitioner and professional practice issues associated with
provision of libraries and views on library usage and delivery vary
according to user and practitioner standpoints. Globally diverse
content provides directions for the future development of public
libraries and for dealing with the emerging challenges facing the
library world.
