Sinossi

Administrators will learn to develop and improve interlibrary cooperative programs on the local, regional, and national levels with this timely book. The contributors--all chosen for their expertise and representation of a broad spectrum of librarianship--offer valuable discussions on networking concerns such as governance, planning, economic and legal problems, leadership needs, appropriate products and services, improving the political environment, and more. They address many of the reservations about interlibrary cooperative programs that are privately expressed by some administrators--the need for reliance on other institutions, the loss of autonomy, and the cost, benefits, and feasibility of such commitments. This book's valuable contributions-- reflecting the changed environment for library administrators--provide a variety of different perspectives and respond to pertinent management issues.
