Core webinar: Small Library Assessment Hills You Can Climb


Date: Tuesday, June 13, 2023

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description:

We will briefly describe the landscape of library assessment, beginning with why we do assessment, then quickly cover different methods for assessment. Presenters will share achievable library projects used in their own libraries, including examples of some quick accomplishments. The projects reflect assessing cross-departmental foundation courses, benchmarking your institution's data with peer data and presenting that in a dashboard, handling non-generalizable data, working with advisory boards or focus groups and gathering student feedback. All of the projects might be accomplished relatively quickly in a new assessment librarian's first year or that could fit in with other responsibilities that those interested in assessment have. While the examples are from academic libraries, other libraries could adapt the projects for their own organization.


Learning outcomes:

At the end of this webinar, the attendees will be able to:

  *   Describe the purpose of assessment in academic libraries.
  *   Describe several small assessment projects that could be accomplished relatively quickly.


Who should attend?
