Measuring Value and ROI of Academic Libraries: The IMLS Lib-Value Project Carol Tenopir University of Tennessee Charleston 2011

Multiple institutions using multiple methods to measure multiple values for multiple stakeholders LIB-VALUE:

Ebooks Special Collections Information Commons Journal Collections All Services Teaching and Learning Reading and Scholarship Building Tools Website and Value Bibliography Measuring value

Return on investment in a strict sense… …is a quantitative measure expressed as a ratio of the value returned to the institution for each monetary unit invested in the library. For every $/€/£ spent on the library, the university received ‘X’ $/€/£ in return. Demonstrate that library collections contribute to income-generating activities

Return on investment is also… …values of all types that come to stakeholders and the institution from the library’s collections, services, and contribution to its communities.

1.purchase or exchange value: what one is willing to pay for information in money and/or time, and 2. use value: the favorable consequences derived from reading and using the information. In the information context economist Machlup described 2 types of value:

Lib-Value Comprehensive Library Value Study (Bruce Kingma) Economic (private) – What is the value to an individual to use the library resources? Social (public) – What is the value to the institution of the library? Environmental (externality) – What is the value of the environmental savings of library provision of electronic resources? – Have libraries gone green without knowing it?
