Library Management in the Information Technology Environment : Issues, Policies, and Practice for Administrators Paperback / softback

Edited by Brice G. Hobrock

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Library and Information Science series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, first published in 1992, equips library managers in all types of libraries to make the administrative changes necessary to deal with new information technologies.

Despite financial difficulties due to inflation and declining budgets, electronic/optical information formats and the hardware and software to support them are a reality for many libraries.

Libraries are designing and implementing prototypes of the ‘electronic library’ and are introducing new technologies as a growing adjunct to traditional text formats and services.

It analyses administrative adjustments to the new technological information culture.

Chapters in this resource that deal with issues not easily grasped by non-computing specialists are distilled to basic components, making them easy for busy managers to comprehend and immediately useful to library administrators.
