Managing the one-person library provides a useful and needed resource for solo librarians confronted with the challenges of running a small library.

This book will provide a much-needed resource manual that will allow solo librarians of all backgrounds, and paraprofessionals, to manage their collections as effectively as their larger librarian counterparts. Written by a librarian with extensive solo library management in the field Targeted to all types of solo librarians (e.g., medical, law, academic) Essential reading for paraprofessional librarians who manage one-person libraries
