Survey of Academic Librarians: Communicating with Library Management
Primary Research Group | April 2010
This report looks at how librarians communicate with one another in the same library and with library management. It first of all looks at use of in-house library communications tools such as internal blogs, listservs, knowledge management systems and newsletters. Next it probes in detail the inner workings of how librarians relate to their immediate boss and to library administration. Librarians describe the management style of their institution, their experiences with their library director, the nature of administrative politics at their institution.
