Description
This edited collection presents insightful, praxis-driven research on how libraries are responding to evolving trends in information and library sciences.
The authors-experts from the fields of library and information science as well as related disciplines including sociology and communication technologies-examine key issues facing libraries, including budget constraints and resource allocation, changing user expectations, and emerging technologies. Utilizing a range of methodologies, including qualitative, mixed-method, and quantitative approaches, contributors demystify the challenges facing modern libraries and offer practical solutions to help libraries thrive in a world of constant disruption.
