Succession Paths for Academic Library Directors.
Hatcher, Karen A.
Journal of Library Administration, v24 n3 p31-46 1997
Library literature is examined for patterns for succession to the academic library director's position. A survey of 21 library directors of The Council on State University Libraries was conducted to determine changes. Findings indicate women find it easier to obtain library director positions through external hires; male librarians no longer have to move to obtain a director's position. (AEF)
