Paperback. Condizione: New. Play is a state of mind, and a means to have fun, explore wild ideas, and get lost in "the flow." Not only does play make library work more enjoyable and less stressful, it can also help us do our jobs better-while making the library a much more engaging and delightful presence in the community at large. Regardless of your age, background, or comfort level, you can use a playful mindset to jumpstart your organization's initiatives, programs, and services.
