These models describe various ways of delivering services, but much of the innovation in libraries is related to new services that start with individuals who are stimulated by a service opportunity and initiate projects. In order for librarians to think more like an innovative entrepreneur, Pinchot devised ten rules for entrepreneurs to follow to achieve their goals:

1. “Come to work each day willing to be fired.

2. Circumvent any orders aimed at stopping your dream.

3. Do any job needed to make your project work, regardless of your job description.

4. Find people to help you.

5. Follow your intuition about the people you choose, and work only with the best.

6. Work underground as long as you can—publicity triggers the corporate immune mechanism.

7. Never bet on the race unless you are running in it.

8. Remember it is easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

9. Be true to your goals, but be realistic about the ways to achieve them.

10. Honor your sponsors.”22
