Machiavellian Librarian

Last week when I was reading the reviews for The New Academic Librarian, I began to wondering if there were any other reviews out there for The Machiavellian Librarian that we did not see when it was released in 2013/2014. Turns out there was one more and a few other things.

An Australian book review!!! Julia Leong (2014) The Machiavellian librarian: Winning allies, combating budget cuts and influencing stakeholders (Chandos Information Professional Series), The Australian Library Journal, 63:4, 331-332.

And finally there was a review published on scienceblog.com, where the author complained more about what was not there, than what was there, but he did say some nice things too:
