- A Handbook of Library Ideas. (150 Innovative Practices for the Creative Librarian). PLUS: "Basic Characteristics of the Creative Librarian." Shaffer, Dale E. Creativity Improvement Programs Individual Characteristics Innovation Librarians Library Administration Library Services The sharing of new ideas for improving library services, a concern of every creative librarian, is the goal of this compilation of 156 novel and nontraditional approaches. The ideas are arranged alphabetically by key thought with a contents listing at the front of the handbook. Some are suitable for public libraries, some for school libraries, some for special libraries, and some for all types of libraries; their value depends upon the particular needs of the individual library and the patron being served. Most have been tried in a library somewhere and many remain in effect. Although complete details are not given, sufficient information is available to trigger action. A descriptive listing of 12 basic characteristics of the creative librarian is furnished in the introduction. (Author/RAA)
