Systems Analysis as a Decision-Making Tool for the Library Manager

Mackenzie, A. Graham

Library Trends, 21, 4, 493-504, Apr 73

Systems analysis, in this context, is not the process which is the necessary prelude to library automation; it is something more basic. It involves seeking out the fundamentals of a situation and applying scientific methods to their study, to find an optimal solution to the problems facing the manager. (20 references) (Author/TW)
