Book excerpt: Library managers and supervisors face staffing decisions every day. When priorities change quickly - whether relating to diversity, legal challenges, new technology, or simply a desire to build an exciting team and bring people together to do their best - it takes more than good intentions to achieve results. Two experienced library managers explain how to create a productive work place, as they weave practical advice and expert commentary into an easy-to-use resource. Drawing both from common sense and from the experience and insights of the pros, they address an increasingly turbulent library environment. They focus on daily, real-world practices with: Specific strategies for brand-new supervisory staff; Tips for encouraging a positive work ethic, maintaining productivity, and building teamwork; Proven advice on practical supervisory issues like hiring, firing, interviewing, training; Policies and procedures that maintain fairness while addressing potential legal landmines; Guiding supervisors through the intricate process of managing others, this comprehensive handbook addresses the fundamental issues facing new managers.It also serves as a welcome refresher and reference for experienced managers facing new challenges in the complex and changing environments in their libraries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New public library directors quickly learn what seasoned directors already know: running a library means you’ve always got your hands full—balancing the needs of staff, patrons, facilities, library boards, and other stakeholders with professional responsibilities like community interactions, legal and financial requirements, and whole lot else that wasn’t exactly in the job description. Whether you are considering becoming a public library director, are brand new to the role, or have settled in but find yourself thinking “there’s got to be a better way,” authors Hall and Parker are here to help. This book walks you through the core components of getting up to speed and then provides templates, sample documents, checklists, and other resources that will make your job easier. Gleaned from their own decades of experience in library leadership positions, in this toolkit they - cover such key topics as employees, trustees, finances, legal issues, library policies, emergency planning, and technology; - discuss strategic planning and share advice on keeping up with trends; - offer nearly two dozen ready-to-use resources, including a Director’s Report Template, a Social Media Policy, an Employee Exit Questionnaire, a Library Cleaning Checklist, a Vision Statement worksheet, and more; and - suggest additional learning opportunities in each chapter to help you continue your learning journey. Public library directors can steer clear of common pain points by relying on the expert guidance and organizational aids in this toolkit.

Book excerpt: What do Christianity and librarianship have in common? Netherlands Prime Minister and theologian Abraham Kuyper (1837-1920) was among the first in the modern era to attempt to rejoin the dichotomy of sacred vs. secular study when he said, "no single piece of our mental world is to be hermetically sealed off from the rest." Over the years a number of publications have followed Kuyper's lead yet little has been written on the subject since Greg A. Smith's notable Christian Librarianship (2002). Building on Smith's work, this volume seeks to bridge the sacred/secular divide with an exploration of how Christianity and the gospel are manifested through the profession of librarianship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relied on by generations of writers, the MLA Handbook is published by the Modern Language Association and is the only official, authorized book on MLA style.
