This book covers three principal areas related to information
policy and decision making: economics and government policy,
management and marketing of services, and innovations and the
impacts of technology. It provides a practical and comprehensive
background and framework for librarians.
As information service management becomes increasingly critical in
the 1980s, its attention is no longer limited to the acquisition,
indexing, and storage of documents. Instead, it is taking on an
expanded role in the understanding and analysis of economic issues
and the management of technological innovation, This collection
defines the dimensions of this expanded role and suggests
strategies for improved information service management. Three
principal areas related to information policy and decision making
are covered: economics and government policy, management and
marketing of services, and innovations and the impacts of
technology. The book provides a practical and comprehensive
background and framework for librarians, students of information
science, information center managers, and others who are concerned
with effective management of information services.
This text tackles some of the issues facing practitioners and
researchers in the field of management of technology. Special
attention is given to the challenges facing nations and companies
at the dawn of a new millennium where technology is expected to
dominate every aspect of human endeavour. It presents thoughts in
this field especially with respect to technological change,
economic growth, globalization and sustainable development. This
collection contains a number of papers contributed by authors from
around the world. The papers were selected from those presented at
the 9th International Conference on Management of Technology held
in Miami, Florida in February 2000. This is the official conference
of the International Association for Management of Technology
(IAMOT), an international association concerned with the promotion
of education, research and practice in this growing field.
