reference guides Amy Myerson 29 Mar 2006 10:11 EST

I am considering purchasing two different NCURA publications ("Sponsored
Research Administration: A Guide to Effective Strategies and Recommended
Practices" and "A Guide to Managing Federal Grants for Colleges and
Universities") and am wondering if anyone can offer me an explanation of
the differences between the two -- focus, strengths, weaknesses. Is there
considerable overlap between the two? Is one more of a policy reference
whereas the other a big picture guide? I am at an undergraduate
institution and noticed that the Sponsored Research Administration guide
includes a section for predominantly undergraduate institutions.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
