This practical, no-nonsense guide will help you face the budget gap, learn why it exists, and plan an appropriate course of action within budgetary constraints. Chapters cover building-level mission statements and evaluation, library management and operations, resources (human, material, and computer), public relations, and fund-raising. A cost-effective investment for school libraries, small libraries, library schools, and library administrators.
