Lessons from the Past, Solutions for the Future

And increasing challenges to books and programs are thrusting library leaders into the spotlight with little or no preparation.
How can libraries prepare for and respond to these challenges?

From developing a sustainability plan to strengthening relationships with funders and the community, this guide offers insights to help libraries navigate financial uncertainty.
