Product Information

The daily administration of an academic library often leaves you needing quick advice on the topic at hand. Nelson, an experienced administrator wrtiting from first-hand knowledge, delivers such advice in 30 topical chapters. Each chapter begins with an "Assertion," a one-sentence summary allowing you to rapidly scan the book and find what you need. When you're on the job you can dip into this guide for ready-to-use guidance on the full range of administrator responsibilities, such as * How to think and act politically * Preparing staff for safety and security procedures * Influencing student and faculty's perception of the library as a basic component of education * Fostering librarian's professional identity as teachers * Communicating effectively, from email messages to meetings * Assessment and systematic collection of data Commentary sections in each chapter offer observations and interpretation, with abundant examples of useful advice. If you want to dig further into a topic, a Readings section points you to resources. Nelson's guide will be invaluable to new and experienced administrators alike.
