| Résumé : | Library Funding Models in the 21st Century is a comprehensive and practical examination of how libraries can secure and sustain financial resources in a rapidly evolving information environment. The author, Gaurav Kumar, explores a wide range of both traditional and innovative funding strategies, including public grants, private partnerships, endowments, and newer approaches such as crowdfunding and community-based support models. The book discusses the challenges that modern libraries face in balancing budgets while still maintaining and expanding essential services, particularly as digital resources and technological expectations grow. It analyzes the opportunities and limitations of various funding sources and highlights successful case studies from diverse library contexts to illustrate how different strategies have been implemented effectively. Throughout, the text emphasizes the need for strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and adaptability as libraries navigate financial pressures and institutional demands. Designed as an indispensable guide for library administrators, policymakers, and stakeholders, the book offers insights, frameworks, and actionable recommendations for building resilient and sustainable financial models that can support the mission of libraries well into the future. |
