Language Arts. Nonfiction. HTML: The recipient of rave reviews from far and wide (Journal of Hospital Librarianship deemed it "a librarian's dream ... very forward-thinking"), since its initial publication this text has served as an essential resource for both LIS students and practitioners.

Throughout, Evans and new co-author Greenwell pay close attention to management in "new normal" straitened economic conditions and the pervasive impact of technology on a library manager's role.

This is a well-written book (4 stars) on something I find extremely tedious (1 star): library management. I averaged and rounded up to 3 stars. (

If it wasn't for school I would not be reading a management book. that said, this one was painless. It focuses on practical examples relating to libraries and other information centers and explains concepts in clear language. I would not have read it for fun, but it was easy to read and get ideas from. (
