Synopsis

Traditional road-map approaches to library planning are no longer adequate because the environment keeps changing, say Giesecke, Cawthorne, and Pearson, who describe scenario planning as an alternative. They cover scenario planning theories, writing scenario plots, developing strategies for scenarios, using complementary research methods to enhance scenario planning, scenarios on higher education, how scenarios help organizational leaders think creatively about change, scenarios for planning with human resource directors, and updating the case study of student technology fees at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
