  Library Integration in Institutional Learning Analytics (LIILA) (Oakleaf, 2018)

  This report was published as part of the Library Integration in Institutional Learning Analytics (LIILA) project, funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The results of the project are detailed in this report and address the four project goals: (1) to increase librarian awareness and engagement in learning analytics; (2) to craft a plan for integrating academic libraries into learning analytics initiatives that support student learning and success; (3) to develop sustaining partnerships and collaborations among academic librarians and learning analytics lynchpins, institutional and library systems professionals, and library vendor communities; and (4) to explore, design, and develop library use cases and data profiles that can be used with learning analytics standards to integrate library data with institutional data stores.

  We encourage you to use this document to start a conversation with your chief academic officer, provost, president, or your library’s advisory committee. At our request, Dr. Oakleaf wrote the executive summary with an external audience in mind.

  The Library Assessment Cookbook (Dobbs, 2017)

  Assessment examines how library services and resources impact and are perceived by users, and guides strategic planning discussions and development of future acquisitions and services. Assessment is fundamental to positioning your library within your organization and effectively demonstrating how it furthers your institution’s goals. And it can be more of an art than a science, using the qualitative and quantitative data available to you to show your library’s alignment with the needs and mission of your organization.

  Putting Assessment into Action: Selected Projects from the First Cohort of the Assessment in Action Grant (Ackermann, 2016)

  Whether the library assessment is driven by external pressure or by an organizationally inspired desire to improve, library managers are expected to be able to plan and implement both comprehensive and targeted evaluations of their impact, services, resources, programs, virtual and physical spaces, and partnerships. Many librarians have been invited to serve on review teams for other academic libraries, either as part of a reaccreditation process or as part of a general cyclical program review process. At their own institutions, librarians have initiated reviews of their libraries or been asked to do so by a senior administrator. There are no blueprints for conducting external reviews and self-studies. In this volume, the reader will find essays by key thinkers and leaders that address the major aspects of the formal assessment and review of academic libraries. This volume offers practical and applicable information, contextualized through current theory and approaches.
