Book Synopsis Serving Print Disabled Library Patrons by : Bruce E. Massis
Download or read book Serving Print Disabled Library Patrons written by Bruce E. Massis and published by McFarland. This book was released on 1996 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To a large extent, library schools have provided little training for librarians who serve visually or physically impaired patrons. Left to their own devices, librarians have developed a myriad of programs, often through a combination of professional savvy and creative instinct. While librarians have made an admirable effort to develop programs for print disabled patrons, many are unaware of or unable to access information on programs and services in place elsewhere. This work, written by experts in the field, provides a detailed course in serving the print impaired patron. The areas covered include education and training, accessing the library, services to students, the impact of technology, production practices, and awareness issues for librarians.

Book Synopsis Responding to Rapid Change in Libraries by : Callan Bignoli
Download or read book Responding to Rapid Change in Libraries written by Callan Bignoli and published by American Library Association. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of rapid change and an ever-widening constellation of challenges, it’s crucial for library leaders to pull back to the question of “why?” Plotting a sustainable way forward depends upon recommitting ourselves to our underlying values, such as customer service and community-building, while fostering the improvements that change makes possible. With passion, patience, and fortitude, libraries can stride confidently into the future. In this book, noted speakers and consultants Bignoli and Stara speak directly to library directors, managers, administrators, and technology staff, offering concrete guidance on setting or resetting strategic priorities. Taking an interconnected and specific approach to planning for and strengthening the library environment as a whole, their book discusses why libraries should embrace change as a fundamental part of library life; explores how to harness rapid change to provide more responsive, user-centered library service; addresses the ways in which libraries straddle the physical and the digital, in areas such as service provision and collections, illuminating how they overlap and can be improved using similar philosophies; presents both a comprehensive overview of library technologies as well as related team and change management advice, all grounded in user experience principles; shows how the concepts of sustainability and flexibility apply to physical space planning and design, from furniture selection and arrangement to infrastructure; and provides sound guidance on project management, problem solving, preparing for future challenges, personal reflection and self-care, and other leadership topics.
