Few libraries exist in a vacuum, accountable only to themselves.
There is thus always a larger context for accessing library
quality, that is, what and how well does the library contribute to
achieving the overall goals of the parent constituencies?
Sarah Pritchard

There is no systematic evidencecollected which shows the value
of academic librariesfor teaching and research staff.

Live by the numbers, ….
![Page 14: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Challenges
Lack of consensus about what should be measured and how
Lack of understanding of performance measurement and metrics
Organizational structural issues Lack of precision in measuring performance, and
alignment issuesDetermining the “bottom line” is too far awayMajority of stakeholders are too far awayLibrary staff find it difficult to see the “big”
picture
![Page 15: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
And the survey said ….
![Page 16: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Lack of a Connection
• Budget and outputs (and outcomes) are separated
• No “bottom line” measure for libraries
• Decision-making process is bigger than the library
• Library has neither champions nor foes
• Library benefits are not widely self-evident
![Page 17: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Orr’s Fundamental Questions
• How good is the library?
• What good does the library do?
• How well is the library managed?
![Page 18: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
We should be a bit wary of the “little library”
…For when it is good, it is very, very good
and when it is bad, it’s a “pretty good library for a town this
size.”
Eleanor Jo Rodger

Levels of Assessment …
• Individual student
• Course
• Departmental/Program
• College or University
![Page 21: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Types of Measures
• Direct– Provide tangible, visible and
self-explanatory evidence of what students have & have not learned
• Indirect– Capture students’
perceptions of their knowledge & skills; supplement direct measures; sometimes called surrogates
![Page 22: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Qualitative Tools
• Focus groups – open ended
• Biography• Phenomenology –
capture the “Aha!” moment
• Grounded theory• Ethnography• Case study
![Page 23: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Qualitative Assessment
• Provides in-depth understanding of user responses and interactions
• Represents part of a long-term strategy of formative evaluative
![Page 24: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Quantitative Tools
• Surveys
• Transaction logs
• Statistics from systems
• Observations (count)
![Page 25: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Quantitative Assessment
• Analyses to determine library impacts on academic performance, retention rates
• Describe retention rates and GPAs in defined populations over semesters and users
• Compare users & non-users of library services while adjusting for academic preparation and background differences
• Conduct quasi-experimental designs employing multivariate analysis of covariance & hierarchical regression techniques
![Page 26: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Useful Assessment
![Page 27: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Be cautious about cause-and-effect relationships
![Page 28: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Issue
• Is it: Use library resources/services and you will get better grades.
• Or: I want to do well and so I work hard to achieve better grades (and one way I do that is to use library resources/services).
![Page 29: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Not surprisingly, librarians are keen to show
that the use of expensive, scholarly materials
positively correlates with higher grades,
although they cannot prove that this is so.”
Deborah Goodall & David Pattern
![Page 30: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“There is growing pressure on all academic library managers to be more
accountable for how they use limited resources and to achieve institutional outcomes perceived as important by
college and university stakeholders….”
Elizabeth Mezick

Value of Information
• Expect value-in-use
• Library’s collection reflects a “potential value”
• Collection also reflects a “future value”
• Value of local collection is declining
![Page 35: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Valuable is not about our professional values;in the paradigm of the value of public
libraries,we are the producers,
not the consumers of services.Our sense of what is valuable
really doesn’t matter much at all unless it
matches that our our customers.
Eleanor Jo Rodger
![Page 36: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Fundamental Changes
Libraries have changed more in the past two decades than in the prior two
centuries. Technology is the major driver . . .
We need to recognize that all this change has only begun, and that change is irreversible.
![Page 37: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Increasingly it is important
to remember that libraries
provide few unique services.

Information is woven into our lives
![Page 39: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Quality of InformationThis fast food approach to information consumption drives librarians crazy. “Our information is healthier and tastes better too” they shout. But nobody listens. We’re too busy Googling.”
Peter Morville

Value of the Academic Library
![Page 47: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
If the physical proximity of
print collections had a demonstrable impact on researcher productivity,
no university would hesitate to allocate prime real estate
to library stacks.
![Page 48: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Traditional Value Proposition
Without a great library, there can be no great university.
David Kinly,President of
The University of Illiniois1929
![Page 49: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Universities Provide
• Private goods & services– Courses exchanged for
tuition– Research completed for
funding
• The value propositionThe value to an individual or an organization determines whether payment is made for the service
![Page 50: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Academic Libraries Provide
• Public goods and servicesPrint and online resources are shared by all, usually without the exchange of payment
• Value propositionThe collective value of all users must be estimated to determine if a good or service should be continued
![Page 51: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Value is determined by the user
and the
use of information

NSSE
• 5 benchmarks of effective educational practice– Level of academic challenge– Active & collaborative learning– Student-Faculty interaction– Enriching educational experiences– Supportive campus environment
• Student self-reported gains in intellectual & personal development
• No overlap between self-reported data & standardized objective tests
![Page 63: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
NSSE – Use of the Academic Library
• 50% never used the library
• Use of libraries at small, academically challenging liberal arts colleges are correlated with other purposeful activities
• Library use less intensive at larger universities
• Students who work harder use library resources
![Page 64: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)

Assessing Student Achievement
• Direct measures– Capstone experience– Use of a portfolio– Standardized exam (Collegiate
Learning Assessment)
• Indirect measures
![Page 66: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
• Gains in student performance are quite low
• Individual learning is characterized by persistence
• Notable variation within and across institutions

Wabash National Study
• Different instrument – CAAP• 2,212 students
• Nearly identical results to Academically Adrift
• 44 percent no gains in the first year• 33 percent no gains in 4 years• Students only study about 15 hours
per week

• Opinion surveys
• Skills testing
• Observed behaviors

Bibliographic Instruction• Improvement in basic library skills is
the means and not the end• Yet the means is the focus for
evaluation efforts• Evaluation efforts focus on
– Opinion surveys– Skills improvement– Pre-test & post-test knowledge

Library experiences do not seem to directly contribute to gains in information literacy, to what students gain overall in college, or to student satisfaction.
Kuh & Gonyea

“One way to demonstrate the library’s contribution is to assess whether
students’ experiences with the library
directly or indirectly contribute to desired outcomes of
college.”
George D. Kuh & Robert M. Gonyea

Retention Concepts
• Institutional retention– Enrolling & graduating from the same
institution
• Program retention– Enrolling & graduating with the same
major/department/school
• System retention– Students who leave one university yet
continue and complete post-secondary studies elsewhere
![Page 104: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Measures of Retention
• Persistence (Continuation rate)– From first to second year? Entry to
graduation?
• Completion rate– From entry to graduation (Student
goals?)
• Graduation rates– Are transfers included? Time period?
• Attrition– Leaving university? Leaving higher ed?
![Page 105: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
Measures of Retention
• Stopout– Leave university with the intention (and action)
of returning later to complete a program
• Dropout– Leave university with intention (and action) of
NOT returning
• Transfer– Change institutions yet persist in higher
education– May change type of institution
• Voluntary vs. involuntary attrition?
![Page 106: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Why Students Leave?
• Students’ decision to leave University is influenced by many personal factors– Financial reasons– Family responsibilities– Lack of academic ability– Poor fit, etc.
• Foundational Theories from Education / Psychology:– Tinto’s “Model of Student Integration” – Bean’s “Model of Student Attrition”
![Page 107: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)

“A high rate of attrition
is indicative of a failure
on the part of an institution to achieve its purpose.”

Student Engagement
“many students don’t develop a personal connection with their institution. And when they don’t, they leave”
Gonzales 2010NSSE & CSEQ
![Page 117: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
Library Retention Studies
• Statistically significant relationships between library expenditures, or staffing levels and student retention
E.g. Hiscock, 1986 Hamrick, Schuh, & Shelley,
2004 Mezick, 2007
![Page 118: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
Graduation Rates & Library Expenditures
• Used IPEDS data on institutional characteristics & resource allocations
• Library expenditures was strongly correlated with graduation rates – 1.77 percent increase in graduation rates
• Greatest payoff is attributable to enhanced library expenditures (+0.92) and instruction (+0.80) while increased non-library contributions were quite modest (+0.27)
Hamrick, Schuh & Shelley
![Page 119: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
Library Retention Studies
• Relationships between library use (collections) and student retention
– Student who borrowed books = more likely to persist
• E.g. Kramer & Kramer, 1968
• Impact of instruction
– Students involved in library skills programs showed lower attrition rates
• E.g. Knapp, 1966
![Page 120: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
Library Retention Studies
University of Minnesota
– 77% of undergrads made use of the libraries, 85% of grad students made use of the libraries
– Students who used the library at least once were 1.54 times more likely to re-enroll
![Page 121: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
Library Retention Studies
• Some library involvement in first year experience programs; specific programs for “at risk” groups
– NOT proven to have significant effect
• E.g. Hollis, 2001 Colton, et al, 2002 Aguilar & Keating, 2009 Love, 2009
![Page 122: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Library Retention Studies
• Relationship between library employment & retention
– Higher completion rate among library student workers
• E.g. Wilder, 1990Rushing & Poole, 2002
![Page 123: The value of libraries perpun](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5537e37b550346b4378b4687/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
“If strong linkages between libraries and student retention can be made,
then the perceived value of the library may indeed rise.”
Steven Bell

• Some groups, some majors & seniors engage in more library-related activities
• Academic support expenditures tend to correlate with increased engagement
• Institutional academic challenge correlates with library use
