| Abstract: | In the past five years, the Penn State University Libraries have adopted a dual-management style in several locations, assigning one head librarian to multiple campuses. The success of these arrangements is context-specific and contains benefits for the individual and the organization, as well as some drawbacks. This article discusses situations in which librarians manage multiple locations in both interim and permanent capacities and offers perspectives based on the authors' experiences.
