What People are Saying About This
A VALUABLE ADDITION to the growing body of library literature on
performance measures, metrics, and assessment. . . . Particularly suitable
for college and university libraries, library consortia, and health
sciences libraries. . . . Practitioners describe how LibQual+ can be used
to optimize resource decisions, modify staffing patterns, contribute to
strategic planning efforts, and improve physical spaces and service
strategies for new and redesigned library facilities.
MLS, MBA, Director, University of Connecticut Libraries;
Chair, Association of Research Libraries, Statistics & Measurement
Committee
INSIGHTFUL. . . . Documents the monumental impact of having a large
community of libraries talking to a large community of users. IMPORTANT. .
. . Should be required reading for academic libraries and librarians who
are seriously interested in the assessment of services, collections, and
effectiveness.
PhD, MLS, Hillman University Librarian, University of
Pittsburgh
