Managing Children's Services in the Public Library

I originally bought this as a text for a grad course and have kept this as near my desk as possible since. Fasick covers all aspects of managing library services for children in an easy-to-read, step-by-step format.This book is useful to school media personnel as well as public librarians. A great reference for anyone who works with children in a public setting.
