Review

"Beyond Survival shows how the transition tactics and strategies developed by businesses can be adapted to academic libraries. By adopting the same organizational development tools and concepts espoused by the business world, academic libraries can not only survive in the short term, but can take advantage of emergent opportunities to ensure long-term excellence."--Jacket
