The book is organized around 300 hints--more than 114 of which are green alternatives--for administering a library in tough times. The book is divided into two parts, Support Functions and Physical Plant. The support section investigates such topics as how to best use volunteers and how to get free materials for your library. The physical plant section, amply supplemented with dozens of photos, helps a librarian identify and fix problems with dismal walls, ceilings, windows, shelving, desks, seating, and lighting, proposing low-cost or no-cost solutions to all these woes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInstructions are practical and thorough, concentrating on reuse, re-purposing, and recycling, and each idea is reversible.
