About the Book
This practical guide is designed to help librarians understand, plan, install, and maintain computer networks in small libraries. The book provides a step-by-step approach to library networking, covering every stage from assessing the need for a network to installation, user training, maintenance, and working with technical consultants. Each chapter includes worksheets, checklists, and practical exercises that enable librarians to evaluate their requirements and implement networking solutions effectively.
Topics covered include the fundamentals of library networking, advantages and challenges of networked computer systems, hardware and software installation, network planning, cabling and connectivity, user orientation, data backup procedures, network maintenance schedules, and consultant management. Drawing on real-world experiences from numerous small library network installations, the book offers practical guidance that can be readily applied in library environments.
An excellent resource for librarians, information professionals, Library and Information Science students, and administrators seeking to modernize library services through computer networking.
