They explain the theoretical principles along with real-world strategies and results from their own experiences and from other consortial projects." Building from the successful collaborations, librarians, directors, administrators, managers, deans and team leaders will find practical planning models that include research, budgeting, promotion, and evaluation. This comprehensive guide contains all the checklists, case studies, sample agreements, and references needed to facilitate collaborative initiatives.Synopsis
