Comments from commercial partners
The publisher partner claimed to be 'very glad to have got involved, it has helped enormously for us to better understand the library market', and they also suggested that 'both sides in this partnership have learned a great deal in a very short space of time.'
The team from the National Library for the Blind found the project work to be 'very collaborative and constructive. The librarians I have met have been very enthusiastic and committed.'
When I asked the representative from the NLB whether the project would be sustained, she said:
'Yes, this approach is embedded in the organisation in the post of reader advice manager, in our stock selection and management policies, in staff trainingÂ…'.
