Book Review: Managing Creativity: The Innovative Research Library

Abstract

In Managing Creativity: The Innovative Research Library, author Ronald Jantz succeeds by expertly weaving together empirically derived theory with public and private sector case studies to elucidate what it takes for academic libraries to remain relevant via innovative leadership. Not only has Jantz conducted original, data-driven research to support his arguments, he has also gone a step further and described for readers where they—as present or future library leaders—might begin looking for programs and projects to kick-start organizational innovation.
