520 _aSelecting and implementing an integrated library system poses an important decision for a library. The library investment, in both financial and human resources, represents a significant wager on the future. The staff person responsible for overseeing this project not only must understand the technical aspects of an integrated library system, but also possess skills of planning, communication, and leadership. The project manager needs to be adept in leading change and understanding how it can be a factor in staff acceptance and support. This combination of technical and organizational capabilities provides the blueprint for the success of a library systems project.
