“Measuring What Matters to Stakeholders”

December 7, 2016
8:00 am – 1 pm
New Jersey Hospital Association Conference Center

HSLANJ thanks LibraryLinkNJ for generously co-sponsoring this workshop.

How can we help decision makers better understand the value that knowledge managers and information professionals bring to their organizations?  Measuring and communicating what matters to key stakeholders is one step in the process.  This workshop will provide a framework for defining an evaluation plan that will provide meaningful information to help you convey your library’s value to those who influence your budget and operations.  Participants will have the opportunity to practice using planning, evaluation, and communication tools to help them use evaluation to demonstrate their value to stakeholders.

Objectives – Librarians who complete this workshop will know how to:

• Analyze the value that their libraries contribute toward the mission of the larger organization
• Identify services that will be most important to key library stakeholders
• Build measurement into their strategic planning processes
• Learn about tools that link activities to outcomes
• Learn analytic strategies and tools to assess their contributions to their institutions
• Communicate value through measurement results

Continuing Education – This workshop has been approved by the Medical Library Association for 4 contact hours of Continuing Education credit.
