Planning And Evaluating Library Networked Services And Resources is a selection of eleven essays by a variety of authors describing in depth techniques to accurately evaluate services provided through library networks. Essays involve such topics as "E-Metrics and Performance Indicators", "Getting the Most out of Vendor-Supplied Usage Statistics", "Resource Allocation in the Networked Environment", and much more. Though Planning And Evaluating Library Networked Services And Resources does not shy from technical detail, the essays make every effort to describe the steps a librarian must undergo to be sufficiently competent in his or her understanding of networked systems. Charts, sample surveys, diagrams, checksheets and more round out the no-nonsense text in this "must-read" guide for expanding libraries in the age of modern technology.
