The Business Library and how to Use it by Ernest L. Maier Pdf

This newly revised and updated edition (formerly titled "How To Use the Business Library"), the first in 12 years, is a key to timely and relevant business information. Written by two marketing professors and two librarians, this work is divided into four main sections: Introduction to Business Research and the Library; Research Strategies and General Sources of Business Information; Sources of Business Information; and Using What You've Learned. Each of the 16 chapters features an introduction to the topic, an in-depth descriptive list of relevant sources, and research tasks the sources can be used to perform. Expanding coverage on new and emerging technologies in business sources, this edition also provides new methods of accessing this information. Additionally, subject, author/title, organization, and association indexes have been included as well as more international sources, databases, and government publications. The final chapter/section guides the reader through the preparation of a research-based business report. A necessary purchase for academic libraries and very useful in public libraries.

The Business Library by Louise B. Krause Pdf

Excerpt from The Business Library: What It Is and What It Does This handbook has been written with the purpose of giving brief comprehensive information to the business man on the subject of the business library as an indispensable earning factor in the conduct of business enterprises. It aims to tell how to organize and maintain a business library, what to do in order to get the best results from it, and to show by concrete illustrations, gathered from the experience of firms maintaining library service, what the business library is worth as a financial asset. The subject matter is not designed to set forth the work of any one class of business libraries, but is a composite study of many. It records business library facts as observed by the author during ten years of service as a business librarian, and as such, may be also of value to librarians contemplating the undertaking of business library work. The references given at the conclusion of each chapter have been selected from a large mass of printed material on the subject, on the basis of practical supplemental reading only and are not designed to be exhaustive reference lists. The author makes grateful acknowledgment to her Library School class-mate, Renee B. Stern, now Editor of "The Woman's Weekly," for most helpful advice, and to her friend, Virginia Fairfax, Librarian, Carnation Milk Products Company, Chicago, for generous criticism and correction of the manuscript.

Business Planning for Digital Libraries by Mel Collier Pdf

This book brings together international experience of business planning for digital libraries: the business case, planning processes, costs and benefits, practice and standards, and comparison with the traditional library. Although there is a vast literature already on other aspects of digital libraries, business planning is a subject that until now has not been systematically integrated in a book. Digital libraries are being created not only by traditional libraries but also by museums, archives, media organizations, and any institution concerned with managing scientific and cultural information. Business Planning for Digital Libraries is designed for practitioners in the cultural and scientific sectors, for students in information sciences and cultural management, and in particular for people engaged in managing digital libraries and repositories, in electronic publishing and e-learning, and in teaching and studying in these fields.

Creating Your Library's Business Plan by Joy HP Harriman Pdf

Ten years ago, few libraries had business plans. Today, more and more libraries are required to write them, or they do so because business plans help clarify goals, set reasonable time frames, articulate standards, measure performance, and announce a library's successes. A good business plan can guide your library's operations and ensure its viability and growth.Chock-full of templates, worksheets, case studies, and samples from a wide variety of libraries, big and small, this how-to guide will demystify the business planning process and help you create your business plan quickly and efficiently, saving you time, money, and frustration. One of the forerunners in library business plan development and a popular workshop leader, Harriman guides you through every step of the process, beginning with the whys and wherefores of writing a plan and the function of each component - from the cover page to the appendix and everything in between. Key areas covered include:- why write a business plan?- the components of a business plan- describing your service concept: vision and mission statements- conducting assessments and creating a SWOT chart- clarifying objectives- determining strategies and action plans- creating a marketing plan- evaluating your business plan's success- forming a financial plan- writing an executive summary and communicating the plan.Over 30 worksheets will help you pull your plan together, one component at a time. More than 25 sample plans from academic, public, medical, and special libraries worldwide are offered as examples of best practice. What's more, all of the templates, worksheets, and samples are reproduced on a companion CD-ROM to enable you to get started immediately.This is the only guide you need to take your business plan from concept to completion efficiently, effectively, and without reinventing the wheel.
