TEN “QUICK AND DIRTY” COST‐CUTTING STRATEGIES FOR YOUR LIBRARY

Abstract

In today's high tech environment, it is far too easy to sit back and complain about all the money that it takes to run a library and far more difficult to do anything about it. Gone are the days of the library whose costs consisted mainly of books, librarians, and buildings. Few people today, even fewer librarians, really understand the complexity of this small “city” of workers and the related costs required to run today's library. Computer systems, CD‐ROM towers, bar‐code readers, video tapes, these are the materials of today's library.
