Edwards, Julie Biando, Melissa S. Robinson, and Kelley Rae Unger. Transforming Libraries, Building Communities: The Community-Centered Library. Scarecrow Press, 2013. ISBN: 978-0-8108-9181-4

Description
Oriented toward public libraries, this the book focuses on how libraries can become more community centered and, by doing so, how they can transform both themselves and their communities. The authors argue that focusing on building community through innovative and responsive services and programs will be the best way for the public library to reposition itself in the years to come.
