Among the topics covered are: the importance of creating organizational structures that lead to innovation; strategies for getting library staff and other stakeholders on board and engaged, complete with a step-by-step toolkit for achieving innovative outcomes; ways to expand the library beyond its walls to deliver exceptional and innovative services to library users; money-saving initiatives that use technology to improve users' experience; and innovative uses of library spaces, such as designing and implementing a digital media lab.
