I can't remember if it was on this list that I saw some correspondence
on"privatising" complete library services.
I know some libraries outsource certain elements but are there any companies
taking over the whole of an institutional library service including
administration of budget purchase serial reception ...
A colleague working in another departmenbt has asked me this:
"Have you come across any information of Privatisation of Library Services?
I mean do you know if there exist private companies that undertake to do all
the work we do? Administer the budget, keep control of expenditure, checking
in standing orders, periodicals etc.etc.you know the whole thing."
Thanks for any feedback you can give me
