The LITA Leadership Guide from the American Library Association
division charged with information technology brings together three
important professional development topics -- leadership,
entrepreneurship, and technology -- in one volume, uniting theory,
practice, and case studies from experienced colleagues in the
field. Topics include: cultivating creativity, career pivots,
forecasting and planning for change, keeping tech and leadership
skills ahead of the curve, and incorporating lessons and knowledge
from across sectors. Additional concepts include: professional
development, evaluating risk, overcoming barriers to innovation,
and seeding success in your career and organization. The book will
help librarians at every level of the career ladder and will
supplement leadership and skill-based training workshops. Library
leadership teams interested in the development of their staff as a
means of improving their organizational performance will find this
book to provide context for growth, training, and collaboration.
This book provides big-picture concepts that affect the many stages
of a librarian's career: * "Librarian as Leader", * "Librarian as
Entrepreneur", and * "Librarian as Technologist" and thus is
suitable for staff development, discussion groups, or courses. This
LITA Guide will help librarians understand how to chart their
career development across these three foundational platforms, and
become familiar with how peers have successfully created positive
change for themselves, and their libraries, as leaders,
entrepreneurs, and technologists
