- Librarians and the "Dismal Science". Carrigan, Dennis P. Economics Library Administration Library Collection Development Library Services User Satisfaction (Information) Discusses several economic concepts and principles important for librarianship--opportunity cost, resources, assets, and investment--and notes the difficulty of placing a monetary value on patron benefits. The law of diminishing marginal returns is applied to the relationships between library services and collection size, and between investment in the collection and patron satisfaction.
