This authoritative handbook: gives new managers the tools necessary to effectively run the technical services department; provides guidance on working with and evaluating staff, vendors, and department outputs; suggests ways to boost department visibility; offers easy-to-scan tips, lists, and sidebars, including numerous "tales from the field"; and includes chapter-level bibliographies for more in-depth study.Focusing on strategies for success, the information offered here can be applied to all library types.Newly appointed technical services managers, library practitioners seeking to advance their careers, and library school students will all benefit from this practical, step-by-step approach. |
