[Michlib-l] LM's Library Science Collection - HR and Staff Management

[Reish, Karren (MDE)]

A library is its staff. HR and staff management are among the most important things for a successful library. People think of libraries as collections of books, but when they talk about their library, they talk about the staff who help them. How can a library director maintain and support their staff? How can you learn HR and staff management? LM is highlighting topical Library Science titles from our collection in occasional emails. Here are selected titles on HR and Staff management in libraries purchased recently. You can search MeLCat for LM titles and you can also check our New Library Science Collection titles at https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/libraries/libsci. Click on the ANSWER catalog link and use "Library Science Collection" as one of the search terms in the Advanced Search - Notes field and you will pull only the library science collection titles.

REMINDER: Titles are available through interlibrary loan only right now, as our MeLCat delivery is temporarily offline while we prepare to move to a new catalog. You can find the information on interlibrary loan borrowing from the Library of Michigan here - https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/about/libuseguidelines/guideforlibraries/interlibrary-loan-guidelines. The page references state employees, but libraries may also borrow from the collection through interlibrary loan. Please feel free to contact me if you have any issues getting a title.
