Three Seminal Quotations Premises Three Seminal Quotations

LibQUAL+™ Premise #1 “….only customers judge quality; PERCEPTIONS SERVICE “….only customers judge quality; all other judgments are essentially irrelevant” Note. Zeithaml, Parasuraman, Berry. (1999). Delivering quality service. NY: The Free Press.

LibQUAL+™ Premise #2 “Il est plus nécessaire d'étudier les hommes que les livres” —FRANÇOIS DE LA ROCHEFOUCAULD

LibQUAL+™ Premise #3 “We only care about the things we measure.” --Bruce Thompson, CASLIN, 2006

“22 Items and The Box….” Why the Box is so Important About 40% of participants provide open-ended comments, and these are linked to demographics and quantitative data. Users elaborate the details of their concerns. Users feel the need to be constructive in their criticisms, and offer specific suggestions for action.

“…and Five Ancillary Items” Either Zero or Five Ancillary items are selected to address local or consortial concerns Items from the initial LibQUAL+TM item pool. Items written by previous consortial groups.

Interpretation: Mean Perceived Scores (n=34)

Score Norms Norm Conversion Tables facilitate the interpretation of observed scores using norms created for a large and representative sample. LibQUAL+® norms have been created at both the individual and institutional level

Institutional Norms for Perceived Means on 25 Core Questions Note: Thompson, B. LibQUAL+ Spring 2002 Selected Norms, (2002).
