Abstract

Purpose This paper will draw a picture of the current landscape of library assessment based on the data gathered in interviews. The authors will focus specifically on the continuum between micro and strategic assessment and share the lessons learned from diverse institutions and geographies about how to build a culture of assessment. Design/methodology/approach Between 2015 and 2017, the researchers have interviewed more than 75 library directors and leaders, library assessment practitioners, and academic experts on four continents about library assessment and its current state in their institutions. Findings The results reveal a varied landscape, with libraries in widely varying stages of assessment performance and readiness. Originality/value This paper presents the results of a large-scale study over more than two years. More than 75 people have been interviewed in five countries. The scale and scope of the work is both significant and unique.
在更广泛的生态系统中对图书馆评估进行情境化:将战略与微观联系起来的拟议模型
本文将根据访谈收集的数据,描绘出图书馆评估的现状。作者将特别关注微观评估和战略评估之间的连续性,并分享从不同机构和地区获得的关于如何建立评估文化的经验教训。在2015年至2017年期间,研究人员采访了四大洲的75多名图书馆馆长和领导、图书馆评估从业者和学术专家,讨论了图书馆评估及其在其机构中的现状。结果揭示了一个不同的景观,图书馆在评估绩效和准备程度方面处于不同的阶段。本文介绍了一项历时两年多的大规模研究的结果。来自五个国家的超过75人接受了采访。这项工作的规模和范围既重要又独特。
