Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 15 years, the ground - both in terms of technological advance and in the sophistication of analyses of technology - has shifted. At the same time, librarianship as a field has adopted a more skeptical perspective; libraries are feeling market pressure to adopt and use new innovations; and their librarians boast a greater awareness of the socio-cultural, economic, and ethical considerations of information and communications technologies. Within such a context, a fresh and critical analysis of the foundations and applications of technology in librarianship is long overdue.

Book Synopsis Critical Management Studies and Librarianship by : Silvia Vong
Download or read book Critical Management Studies and Librarianship written by Silvia Vong and published by Library Juice Press. This book was released on 2023-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical management studies (CMS) research began to emerge in the early 90s as some scholars recognized the oppressive and problematic management practices in the public and private sectors. Since then, CMS scholars have been critiquing dominant ideologies (e.g., managerialism, capitalism) that harm society and oppress workers. CMS scholars have also been exploring ways to redress management education such as re-designing curricula in management schools to include decolonial, feminist, and/or critical theories and concepts to name a few. Critical Management Studies and Librarianship unpacks current library management education and practices driven by the business, management, and organizational studies field through a critical lens. The book begins with an introduction to CMS and its relevance to libraries. The second section of the book offers insights from library professionals into how management education and practices rooted in current dominant ideologies impact work culture, and professional practice. The third section introduces inclusive leadership approaches that focus on equity and social justice and should be considered when designing library leadership programs. The aims of this book are to identify the oppressive logic of current library management practices and offer counter perspectives on ways to teach and frame library leadership.
