| 520 | 1 | |a "Joy M. Greiner visited 10 exemplary public libraries in the United States and Great Britain to find answers to these questions. She interviewed directors and key staff, researched archives, and observed facilities, operations, and interactions. The results of her explorations are contained in this volume, providing readers with nuts and bolts information on public library management, along with general insights into the past, current, and future roles of libraries as institutions. A selected bibliography, historical timelines, and black and white photos of each of the libraries add to the value and appeal of this unique resource for library administrators and staff, educators, students, and anyone interested in the history, management, and future of public libraries."--Jacket. | |
