Assessment and Evaluation for Strategic Decision-Making
October 15, 2021
Kim Kiesewetter, Data Analyst with WiLS. In recent years, there is increasing attention paid to measuring the value of our work – what are we doing that is effective and what challenges might remain? This is where assessment and evaluation come in! While these efforts may seem daunting at first (or even downright scary!), assessment and evaluation can be an opportunity for growth and celebration while also allowing us to make decisions strategically with limited resources. This session will show you how to find and collect data in support of assessment and evaluation efforts at your library.
