The bottom line

determining and communicating the value of the special library

Edición de la obra The bottom line

"Describing how value is added and how it can best be measured, Joseph Matthews explains different types of evaluations (models, implications, and methods) and a variety of measures (input, process, and output). He shows how a cost-benefit analysis and a library balanced scorecard, along with effective communication, can position the library as a "value center" rather than a "cost center." A glossary, list of recommended reading, and an appendix (including a library benefits survey and a table of measures with respective definitions) make this the ultimate means of establishing the value of your library - an essential guide no special librarian should be without!"--BOOK JACKET.
