This study analyzes the management preparation and training of department heads in ARL libraries. A survey was developed and sent to the heads of cataloging and reference departments in order to establish the number of formal management courses they have taken, the years of on-the-job management training prior to their first department head position, and the amount of continuing education they have pursued after becoming department heads. Libraries'management training requirements for filling department head positions and their support of ongoing training for managers were also analyzed
