| Summary |
"This book takes a holistic view of information architecture to offer information professionals a critical analysis of library and information service architecture with discussion of methods, tools, techniques, and trends. The editors argue that library assessment literature has primarily dealt with performance measurement and change management strategies, leaving little on the ways of looking at the process architecture of library and information services and on methods for business process analysis. In addition, this book discusses research and methods that help libraries and information services work from strategic business objectives through to the organisation of processes that support the information services offered; opens a new area of research/investigation on the link between information behaviour research and information systems and architecture, illustrated by case studies and projects; and uses introductory sections and chapter commentary from the editors to draw the discussions together"-- Provided by publisher |
