Planning, Assessing, and Communicating Library Impact: Putting the Standards for Libraries in Higher Education into Action (Off-RoadShow Virtual Workshop)

BLC, Atla, and SEFLIN are excited to bring to their members the ACRL Off-RoadShow Online Experience, “Planning, Assessing, and Communicating Library Impact: Putting the Standards for Libraries in Higher Education into Action.” This two-day workshop (two hours per day) is being offered free of charge to 20 Atla members. Please register only if you can commit to attending the full workshop.

Libraries in higher education are increasingly required to demonstrate their value and document their contributions to overall institutional effectiveness. The Standards for Libraries in Higher Education is a framework for library planning and assessment that can be used for a variety of circumstances including annual planning, program review, and accreditation self-study. Through presentation, discussion, and group activities, learn how to use the Standards to communicate your library’s impact.

This workshop is intended for all librarians, library staff, and library administrators who need to demonstrate the value of their library by documenting their contributions to overall institutional effectiveness and/or to identify areas for quality improvement. Attendees are not expected to have previous experience applying the Standards. Though the primary audience is librarians, library staff, library administrators, and other campus professionals in areas of assessment, institutional planning and improvement, and academic technology may be interested as well.
