Book Review: Higher Education in the Internet Age: Libraries Creating a Strategic Edge
by Patricia Senn Breivik and E. Gordon Gee

Reviewed by Wayne Brown

Breivik and Gee make a strong case that the library should be made a full partner in the institution’s missions of teaching, research, and service, arguing that the benefits the library can bring are undeniable. The authors also describe additional value an institution can derive from the library’s involvement in other areas of the college, such as administration. Finally, they give the reader insight into who the librarians are, where they may fit on the organizational charts, and the funding challenges and possible solutions that can be pursued.
