This time management handbook does not only cover personal time management techniques, but it covers techniques for working with others, and techniques for library administrators. The last two chapters briefly describe balancing career with ones personal life and how to implement a time management plan.
The focus is not so much on saving time as it is to decide ahead of time what goals are most important to accomplish. Having goals and objectives in place librarians can then create a daily plan of action that allows them to work on high priority items first. This will help librarians avoid time wasters such as procrastination, taking on too much, and not being able to say no. Other good tips mentioned were setting aside uninterrupted quiet time everyday, deciding which time of day you are most productive, how to plan effective meetings, and how to delegate effectively.
The Time Management Handbook does what other time management books don't, apply time management to a library setting. However, this book does not explain how to implement a time management plan in great detail. Concepts of planning, goal setting, and implementing time management techniques are not mentioned in depth. Instead the book provides a helpful framework for effective time management.

know the answer either.
