Download or read book The Business Library What it is and what it does written by Louise B. Krause and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Business Library" is a handbook written with the purpose of giving brief comprehensive information to the business man on the subject of the business library as an indispensable earning factor in the conduct of business enterprises. It aims to tell how to organize and maintain a business library, what to do in order to get the best results from it, and to show by concrete illustrations, gathered from the experience of firms maintaining a library service, what the business library is worth as a financial asset. The subject matter is not designed to set forth the work of any one class of business libraries, but is a composite study of many. It records business library facts as observed by the author Louise B. Krause during ten years of service as a business librarian, and as such, may be also of value to librarians contemplating the undertaking of business library work.

Download or read book Supporting Local Businesses and Entrepreneurs in the Digital Age written by Salvatore DiVincenzo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely reference for all public librarians who serve the business community in libraries, regardless of size or location—from small rural outposts to bustling big-city branches. Serving communities today entails serving businesses—in particular, local businesses, entrepreneurs, and those looking to become entrepreneurs. Understandably, many librarians are not prepared for this role, and as a result feel uncomfortable in it. Supporting Local Businesses and Entrepreneurs in the Digital Age: The Public Librarian's Toolkit explains how librarians and libraries can better serve the business community, offering specific guidance on everything from information resources—including books, databases, and free online sites—to programming, special events, marketing, and outreach. Readers will gain insight into key topics ranging from embedded business librarianship, virtual business librarianship, and government documents to seminars, one-on-one appointments, and trade shows. Providing invaluable guidance based on the authors' real-world experience and research as well as interviews with librarians in all sizes of libraries around the country, this book offers practical, actionable advice and proven best practices for serving local business owners and entrepreneurs.
