Strategic Book Curation: Making Collections Meet Real User Needs

Books are the heart of a library, but simply “buying and placing them on shelves” is no longer enough. You must understand your target audience, spatial context, and service model to determine the truly appropriate “type/quantity” of books. Our Book of Library service helps you plan, design, and procure the right collection, complete with data standards ready for immediate service.
