Handbook of Research on Academic Library Partnerships and Collaborations
A book edited by

To be published by IGI Global: http://bit.ly/1B3bgMO
For release in the Advances in Library and Information Science Book Series
ISSN: 23264136
Series Description
The Advances in Library and Information Science Book Series aims to expand the body of library science literature by covering a wide range of topics affecting the profession and field at large. The series also seeks to provide readers with an essential resource for uncovering the latest research in library and information science management, development, and technologies.
Introduction
This publication will seek to document, through well researched chapters, examples of how partnerships and collaborations have enabled academic libraries to provide users with the services and materials that are needed at 21st century colleges and universities.
Approaching the subject matter from the perspective of the libraries themselves, the types of collaborations documented in the book will vary widely from large, consortial level resource sharing
libraries, to smaller, internal and external collaborations.
Objective of the Book
Collaboration is an imperative for today's academic library. This volume will focus on examples of how collaboration enables academic libraries to offer services, build collections, and provide access to resources outside of the traditional library sphere things that libraries may not be able to offer if left to their own resources. Chapters will cover various kinds of partnerships and collaborations, and will focus on academic libraries of all sizes. This handbook aims to serve as an invaluable resource for librarians developing their own collaborative relationships, as well as researchers studying how libraries partner with various entities to achieve their academic missions.
Target Audience
Librarians, researchers, academic administrators, advanced level students, and information technology
professionals will find this handbook useful, not only in understanding collaborative efforts in academic libraries, but in researching such institutional relationships, and in forging their own.
Contributors are welcome to submit chapters on the following topics relating to academic library collaborations, partnerships, consortia, shared use, and large projects:
