Fifth Annual Report of the Association of Research Libraries Office of University Library Management Studies.
Association of Research Libraries, Washington, DC. Office of Univ. Library Management Studies.
Future directions for the Office of University Library Management Studies include the development and extension of new applications of their Management Review and Analysis Program (MRAP). A management audit, which would telescope MRAP into a diagnostic tool for use by research libraries, and the Services Development Program, which would provide a procedure for libraries to assess and prioritize their service obligations, are being planned. A cooperative analytic procedure whereby several libraries would investigate the same question is also being considered for development. In pursuit of its function as information collector and disseminator, the Office has published the "Occasional Papers" series and operated the Systems and Procedures Exchange Center, which itself has published a number of SPEC Kits in addition to responding to specific assistance requests. A summary history and description of Office programs and publications is appended to the report. (KB)
