Dear ARLIS/NA Museum Library Colleagues:

 

In preparation for the Atlanta session, Finding a New Way: Art Museum
Libraries of the Future, I would appreciate hearing from any museum
librarians who have begun to use outcomes-based evaluation and
assessment methods (focus groups/individual interviews/visitors study
surveys) to measure the effectiveness of museum library programs.  Many
of our academic colleagues are already using these techniques through
programs like LibQUAL+ (see:  http://libqual.org/), but I am unaware
whether these assessment methods have yet found their way into art
museum libraries.  Please contact me OFFLIST if you have experiences to
share.  

 

Thanks (in advance) for your assistance!

 

Allen
