For Library Directors Only: Talking About Trustees and For Library Trustees Only: Living with Your Director

By Will Manley

If libraryland were perfect, a professional director would manage and well informed, hard working trustees would provide direction. In the real world, this relationship is often turned upside down. Or backwards.

Do we have the perfect book for both parties Or, make that two books--bound upside down, back to front. For librarians, American Libraries and Booklist columnist Will Manley eavesdrops on the conversations of some of his library friends to hear some trustee "horror" stories--funny, yet insightful conversations. For trustees, this is a guide to and fulfilling their role as "the most important player" in the public library game.
