The authors of this useful book compare libraries to retail stores and suggest that libraries would do well to market the merchandise housed within their walls.I am very excited about the authors' ideas and cannon wait to try some of them. If you are looking for ways to get more books, periodicals, and audiovisual materials into the hands of your staff and students, this book will make and excellent addition to your professional materials.
Libraries looking to increase circulation and connect teens and books will find this reference useful.
LaPerriere and Christiansen have-in a slim, readable volume-supported the contention that libraries can effectively market their collections with simple, effective, practical, and affordable merchandising techniques. This book is an essential addition for enhancing any library's professional collection.
