  • Baltimore Metropolitan Area Library Study: Recommended Long-Range Work Program, Final Report. Costs Information Needs Information Systems Libraries Library Services Planning Public Libraries Resource Allocation Systems Analysis This report outlines a Long Range Work Program consisting of a series of research efforts which, when implemented, will supply the basic components for the planning portion of a cooperative region-wide coordinating and decision-making process. These components are: a planning information system, goals and needs analysis procedure, program analysis and cost analysis procedures, an institutional and fiscal resources study, a region-wide project selection and resource allocation procedure, and a number of special, in-depth subject studies. Chapter I introduces the concepts underlying the design of the planning process; Chapter II describes each component of the Long-Range Work Program; Chapter III describes in detail the suggested study plan by which the approach can be implemented, and Chapter IV discusses the time frame for conducting the work program.
