I recently completed the Library Management course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a very worthwhile experience. As a librarian in a public library in Singapore, I was looking for a course that would help me develop my skills in library management, particularly in the area of collection development. The course provided me with a thorough understanding of the principles and practices of library management, with a focus on practical applications. I appreciated the detailed nature of the course materials, which included plenty of examples and case studies from different types of libraries. The online platform was also very user-friendly, making it easy for me to navigate and complete the course assignments. One area for improvement would be to include more examples from Asian libraries, but overall I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others.
