This book offers a survival guide for media specialists who want to THRIVE--not just SURVIVE--in their busy media centers.

Librarians jobs are getting harder and harder, yet few books exist solely to help them identify and deal with stress. Library Lifesavers: A Survival Guide for Stressed Out Librarians fills that gap. This unique self-help book offers today's multitasking media specialists the ready-to-use strategies--Lifesaver Tools--they need to find balance and stay afloat.

Identical twins Pamela and Tamora Bacon organized their book around the THRIVE theme, presenting six basic tenets:

T - Take Action

H - Hurry No More

R - Read & Regain Control

I - Inspire Yourself & Others

V - Vision ... Past, Present & Future

E - Exercise Your Mind & Body

Each section begins with a real-life question, followed by practical advice and hands-on activities to help librarians renew themselves professionally and personally. Whether you read the chapters sequentially or randomly, this unique volume may be the difference between sinking and enjoying the ride.
