Abstract
:
"The Practical Library Trainer examines the concept of the library as a learning place for patrons and staff, offering a comprehensive view of training from an administrator's perspective. Bruce E. Massis, author of The Practical Library Manager, addresses the essential issues of how to develop a strong program of continuous instruction, including customer service, reporting, recruitment, and retention of staff. The book focuses on the integration of staff training as a blended activity instead of an intervention, quelling the notion of training as an "add-on" to existing staff duties."--BOOK JACKET.
