I am concerned by the cost of the book - $180 for print and $132 for electronic. No I am not blaming you for this expensive book. Does this book price itself out the (library staff) users that should read and use electronic management? Steve, congratulations on your contribution to this timely book. I am concerned by the cost of the book – $180 for print and $132 for electronic. No I am not blaming you for this expensive book. Does this book price itself out the (library staff) users that should read and use electronic management?
