contents Proceedings of the LARC Computer-Based Unit Cost Studies Institute (University of Texas, Austin, September 16-17, 1971). Axford, H. William, Ed. Administrator Education Computer Programs Cost Effectiveness Institutes (Training Programs) Library Administration Library Automation Management Information Systems Performance Criteria Program Evaluation The purpose of the institute was to illustrate the capabilities of the computer as a management tool. For this reason, LARC sought to attract participants who were high enough on the administrative ladder to be both interested and able to benefit from such a presentation. Twenty-six people attended the institute and by far the largest percentage met this specification. The program, in keeping with the decided upon format, was limited to a single cost analysis and performance measurement program, one developed at Florida Atlantic University for the State University System in Florida and subsequently implemented at (ASU) Arizona State University. The participants were furnished with (1) a manual for carrying out a unit cost study (2) the summary data from studies carried out at ASU covering the fiscal years 1969/70 and 1971/72 (3) program documentation and (4) the Fortran program and the ASU raw data for 1971/72 in punched card form. The handouts, were in some respects, the most important benefit occurring to the participants as they made it possible to carry out a similar study at their own institutions with a minimum of effort. Furthermore, they could, if they so desired reproduce the entire 600 page ASU report as a study document prior to implementing a study of their own. In general, the single application approach, seemed to be justified by the participants response to the institute. (Author/NH)
