Are you a new supervisor in technical services? Were you promoted to department head from within the department? Are you a new MLS graduate working your first management position? Are you a library assistant now supervising other assistants or clerks without management training or the opportunity to go to workshops? Do you think being a supervisor or manager means doing the same things as you did before, but with more authority and power?
If you are a new supervisor in technical services, this book will guide you through all you need to know as a manager. Whether you work in a public, academic, school or special library, New Supervisors in Technical Services: A Management Guide Using Checklists will provide you with practical checklists on a variety of topics. The checklists in this book are designed to get you through tough management situations, such as negotiation and discipline, as well as help you manage your time, your people, and even plan for the future.
If you are a manager with several years’ experience, you may find this book to be a useful management tool. How much do you really know about holding effective meetings, motivating employees, and setting priorities? After checking off what you know about these topics, you may be surprised by what you don’t know. Use this checklist as a tool that will help you become a more efficient manager, year after year.
