About us

Libraries of all kinds are being challenged and must adapt to a changing paradigm in facilities, resources, and services. This includes: new library management approaches, resource assessment, a focus on user-based service strategies, web 2.0 components, innovation in the teaching and learning process, community and partner building, the Information Commons, adapting organizational structure, budgetary redirection and deployment, and library building design.
