"Financial Management in Academic Libraries explores the connection between financial management and accountability, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability, and demonstrates how to capture them in a realistic, data-supported budget. Among the different units of an academic institution, the library has an advantage in that its managers can link these concepts to the library's infrastructure, its staffing, collections, services, and technology. Focusing on these components can enable everyone in the library to work to achieve organizational sustainability over time and advocate for their place in the institution"--Provided by Amazon.com.

It illustrates how priorities and goals must change in accordance with changes in libraries’ roles in the information world.

The authors also make recommendations regarding when and how to share relevant financial information throughout the organization and with constituents throughout the book.

Finance is the life blood of any library systems. Without finance neither any library can be started nor successfully run. Provisions of sufficient funds at the required time are the success of libraries. In the recent times, educational finance is highly institutionalized and a number of institutions have been setup to meet the requirements of higher education. Library requires the permanent source of supply of adequate finance which can meet the needs of its readers and proper maintenance of library in every respect. This study has been carried out in the Sri Krishansamy Reddiar Educational Trust Institutions. The data for this study have been collected from both the primary and secondary sources. Besides, expert opinions have been sought through personal interview. The secondary data are useful to understand the past, while primary data enables one to know the present.
