Determining & Communicating Value Joe Matthews Internet Librarian 2006

Adding Value Ease of use Noise reduction Quality Adaptability Time savings Cost savings

Why Demonstrate Value? Show the librarys contribution to meeting the organizations goals and objectives Show accountability Advocacy and marketing tool Be proactive

To Show Your Value Address the priorities of the whole organization Demonstrate how the library furthers the goals of the organization Use their jargon

Evaluation Model ResourcesCapabilityUtilizationImpact or Effect Input Measures Process Measures Output Measures Outcomes IndividualOrganization or Community

To demonstrate value we must focus on OUTCOMES Answer the question: Are we doing the right things?

Outcome – the consequence, practical result, or effect of an event or activity Impact – the effect of one person, thing, action, or service on another Value – the importance of something, the perception of actual or potential benefit Benefit – the helpful or useful effect that a thing or service has

Taxonomy of Results COGNITIVE results AFFECTIVE results ACCOMPLISHMENTS in relation to tasks EXPECTATIONS met TIME aspects MONEY estimates

Academic Libraries A considerable proportion of all students borrow no materials from the library A small proportion of students are responsible for a majority of borrowed materials Assigned readings and course- related readings (reserves) accounts for the majority of circulation The amount of borrowing varies by discipline or field of study

Academic Libraries The studies do not control for student abilities and typically rely on a single measure of use and success Studies that rely on self-evaluation of success may not be an accurate assessment of library skills The correlation between library use and academic achievement is weak at best (and, in most cases, not statistically significant).

Academic Library Outcomes Does the use of library resources & services: Assist students achieve academic success? Assist faculty improve their teaching Assist scientists in their research?

School Libraries Schools with stronger school library programs average 10-20% higher test scores
