[book1.jpg]Maxwell, Nancy Kalikow. Grant Money through Collaborative Partnerships. Chicago: ALA, 2012. 025.11 Maxwe ISBN 978-0-8389-1159-4
Because libraries are information and research centers, they can support a huge variety of grant funding initiatives outside their own purview. Cultural centers, businesses, and educational institutions are untapped resources for library funds. What's more, many libraries may find that collaborating on a grant application with another organization is preferable to going forward with a time-consuming application of their own. But finding the right collaborative partner and securing a place at its development table can be challenging. Drawing on her extensive experience as a grant developer and library director, in this ALA Editions Special Report Maxwell
* Presents an overview of grant basics, with extensive lists of both online and print resources
* Suggests how to frame libraries research capabilities as benefits to the community at large, transforming these capabilities into a revenue source
* Explores strategies for locating potential partners, with tips on approaching collaborators and establishing successful relationships
* Describes what libraries can ask for from the grant developer, making sure to include what they want in the grant proposal
Maxwell offers an abundance of practical advice and encouragement for using this novel approach to secure additional funding for libraries.
[book2.jpg]Gunnels, Claire B., Susan E. Green and Patricia M. Butler. Joint Libraries: Models That Work. Chicago: ALA, 2012. 027.473 Gunne ISBN 978-0838911389
The joint-use college/public library can be an ideal solution to serving patrons while managing overextended resources, and this illuminating book scrutinizes successes and failures of the joint-use model. Three founding faculty librarians of a joint-use college/public library discuss the factors that should go into evaluating when and where a joint library is suitable. Incorporating lessons learned from five case studies, the authors
* Include a short history of joint libraries, exploring how this model is a natural evolution from reciprocal borrowing, shared catalogs, and interlibrary loan
* Explain how to manage all aspects of a joint-use library, including choices about the physical plant, decisions on contractual requirements, collection development, classification systems, cataloging and technical services issues, personnel, and more
* Address emerging trends and best practices for serving students and the general public simultaneously
* Offer interviews with administrators and staff in successful joint-use libraries
Anyone interested in joint-use libraries in particular, or radical ideas for extending resources in general, will want the information in this book.
