Books for Librarians

Library Professional Development

The Library Innovation Toolkit:
Ideas, Strategies and Programs
Edited by Anthony Molaro and Leah L. White (2015)


Librarians describe innovations in libraries focusing more on people--either staff or patrons--than on technology. They cover innovation in terms of culture, staff, outreach, technology, spaces, and programs. Among their topics are the library's role in promoting tolerance and diversity in a university, the Virginia Tech experience in building a toolkit to craft an instruction program, seizing the opportunity for innovation and service improvement, a digital media lab in an academic library, and stepping into the story with children and young people.
