The associate university librarian handbook: a resource guide

摘要

In the introduction to this handbook, the editor, Bradford Lee Eden, remarks that there is little to support and guide the people occupying the high-level position of associate librarian in universities - not even a support group within the American Library Association. The reason for this is self-evident: these people constitute a unique group of librarians, but not a large group. Fortunately, much of the advice provided in this collection's 17 papers is equally useful for librarians in management positions in any library. The papers are written by a well-credentialed and multi-skilled group of senior university librarians, and each concludes with an extensive list of further reading options for each topic.
