libraries and is here to stay! Here is the practical guide, written specifically
for librarians, to assist you in your implementation or expansion. In these
pages you will find essential background information and get the facts about why
and how libraries should go wireless, including standards, transfer rates,
equipment options and costs, planning and implementation, technical and project
management concerns, and site surveys.<BR><BR>Common library issues such as
compatibility with existing networks, marketing to your patrons, creating good
policy, security options and troubleshooting are addressed. Throughout the book
the authors share advice from real world librarians detailing their experiences
with wireless. For your convenience, a wide variety of planning tools are
included-checklists, cost tables, a glossary of terms and resources for further
research. </FONT></FONT><FONT color=#000080><BR><BR><A

Kelsey provide a comprehensive introduction to the key concepts and elements in
technology planning and the changing technological landscape affecting today’s
libraries. There is clear advice to help you best define your plan’s scope,
purpose and funding requirements, along with step-by-step guidance for
developing an effective technology plan - from gathering data and identifying
institutional needs, to determining priorities, identifying objectives,
outlining costs, and writing the actual plan. A five-step model plan is included
to provide readers with a start-to-finish example of the development process,
and the authors also advise on how to implement the new plan and evaluate its
success.<BR><BR>The accompanying CD-ROM includes over thirty-five time-saving,
sample technology plans and RFPs. Each plan is specifically targeted to public,
academic, school, or special libraries, and can be easily replicated or adapted
for use in your own institution. An array of figures, checklists, and examples
are included throughout the book to help reinforce important concepts, and a
comprehensive webliography lists further related
resources.<BR></FONT></FONT></DIV>
