- Plan for Development of the Office of University Library Management Studies. Webster, Duane Administration College Libraries Library Services Management Development Management Systems Research Libraries The management consulting firm Booz, Allen and Hamilton, Inc. conducted a study of the organization and staffing of the Columbia University Libraries for the Association of Research Libraries (ARL). This is a summary of the report which resulted from that study. The plan presents a framework for the conduct of management programs that contribute to the ARL's basic purpose of strengthening the collections and services of member libraries. The mission of the Management Studies Office is to assist university research libraries in effectively serving their users through sound management of the resources available to them. The work of the office focuses on management, planning policies, budget, supervision, personnel, staff development, organization, and management information. The four projects to be undertaken which reflect the objectives of the office are: (1) Library management research and development program, (2) Library management publication program, (3) Library management conferences program, and (4) Library management consultation. The Management Studies Office is an integral part of the executive offices of the ARL. (SJ)
