Managing Digital Projects byIraRevels
as computers become ever more central to the library experience, the number of digital projects that librarians are tasked with managing grows ever largermounting digital collections, overhauling the catalog, and delivering web-served reference are just the tip of the iceberg. but an in-thetrenches approach to digital project management is usually both haphazard and inefficient. in this book, revels gets down to the practicalities of managing multiple digital projects by
Presenting an overview of the subject, honing in on the triple constraints faced by all projects: time, cost, and scope explaining the stages, activities, and outputs that should be considered in planning and executing a digital project Showing readers how to evaluate software packages to identify the best tools to carry out their projects including sample worksheets, job descriptions, and a complete bibliography for further research
time-strapped librarians need a book that brings them up to speed on this responsibility now fundamental to every library, and this thorough, one-stop resource offers detailed coverage of the process from beginning to end.

From Childrens Literature to Readers Theatre
byelizabethA .Poe
How do you get children excited and engaged with books? get them onstage! readers theatre is a stage presentation during which participants read from scripts, acting out the books story using voice and facial expressions. it offers educators an innovative opportunity to acquaint young people with quality literature, test their grasp of english grammar, develop their public-speaking skills, and teach teamwork in an activity that is as entertaining as it is educational. Poe, creator of many readers theatre programs, explains how to create successful programs, offering

ways librarians can link basic educational goals with appreciation of good literature a bibliography of books suggested for their readers theatre potential, with examples of texts converted into scripts Core programming ideas that can be adapted for use across different age levels
Combining the theoretical with the practical, Poes book helps youth services librarians get students out from behind their desks and onto the stage.

50+ Services: Innovation in Action
byDianthaDowSchull
as baby boomers continue to swell their ranks, behavior and trends in older adults have changed dramatically in the last ten yearsand most literature on this topic is hopelessly out of date. Schull, co-editor of Boomers and Beyond, helps improve the situation by
Presenting over a dozen case studies of public library programs for older adults, spotlighting best practices that can be applied at other institutions detailing a four-year program, presented by the lifelong access libraries national leadership institute, that trains librarians to meet the needs of people over the age of 50 discussing issues such as creativity, health, financial planning, heritage and planning, and intergenerational activities from the over-50 perspective, laying out the trends and implications for libraries including samples of materials that illustrate new approaches to policies, staffing, programs, services, partnerships, and publicity
Containing the keys to reshaping library services for older adults, Schulls book needs to be in the collection of every public library.
