Description and Table of Contents
Description
The techniques of time management explained in this handbook provide a framework from which professional librarians in academic, public, and special libraries can benefit. Included are time management techniques for one's personal work habits, techniques for work routines involving other staff members, and techniques for library administrators. Cochran, a law library administrator focuses on effectiveness (doing the right job) rather than efficiency (doing a job right).
The major topics include setting goals and objectives for one's personal and professional life that support one's values, planning and scheduling work each day, fighting procrastination, limiting interruptions, planning effective meetings, delegating effectively, building morale, and cultivating creativity. Other chapters cover time management techniques for special situations including travel and lunch time, balancing a career and personal life, and implementing a time management training program in a library. Appendices include worksheet forms.
