The Library Student Advisory Board
Author: Amy L. DeuinkPublisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786452900
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This is a practical guide written by two professionals with real-world experience establishing a library student advisory board. Penn State University's Schuylkill campus library has such a board, operating beautifully. Different from traditional student advisory boards, the club at Penn State Schuylkill resembles a public library's "friends" group. The activities of the club benefit not only the library and campus but the club members themselves. Just how much time, effort, and know-how is required to form a library student advisory board? Here is the answer. Useful advice is offered on how to get a club started, how to recruit new members and keep them active, the duties of the club advisor, basic "do's and don'ts" of fundraising, and how to build a successful relationship between the club, the library director, and the library staff.

Library User Metaphors and Services
Author: Carl Gustav JohannsenPublisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110418541
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
How do library professionals talk about and refer to library users, and how is this significant? In recent decades, the library profession has conceived of users in at least five different ways, viewing them alternatively as citizens, clients, customers, guests, or partners. This book argues that these user metaphors crucially inform librarians' interactions with the public, and, by extension, determine the quality and content of the services received. The ultimate aim of this book is to provide library professionals with insights and tools for avoiding common pitfalls associated with false or professionally inadequate conceptions of library users.
