Nelson, a consultant and trainer specializing in public library planning and management, outlines the essential steps for drafting a results-driven, strategic planning process that libraries can complete over the course of four months, regardless of organizational structure or size. Reflecting on the current planning environment for public libraries, she makes the case for strategic rather than long- term planning and includes a wealth of information about understanding and managing the change process. She gives advice on assessing the change-readiness of the library, simplifying data collection, and identifying service priority options. The book includes case studies, reproducible workforms, checklists, and sample meeting agendas.
