Evaluation Methods Federal Aid Federal Programs Institutional Evaluation Library Administration Library Planning Library Services Library Standards Measurement Techniques Policy Formation Program Proposals Public Libraries Following an introduction by Betty J. Turock, nine reports examine key issues in library evaluation: (1) "Output Measures and the Evaluation Process" (Nancy A. Van House) describes measurement as a concept to be understood in the larger context of planning and evaluation; (2) "Adapting Output Measures to Program Evaluation" (Douglas L. Zweizig) presents 12 measures related to commonly occurring library objectives; (3) "Beyond Output Measures" (George D'Elia) proposes extending the evaluation process to include analysis of outcomes; (4) "Improving State Library Evaluation of Federal Programs" (Charles R. McClure) recommends ways for state library agencies to improve their evaluations; (5) "Evaluating the Impact of Federally Funded Public Library Youth Programs" (Mary K. Chelton) explores variables that hinder evaluation efforts; (6) "Qualitative and Quantitative Evaluation: Eight Models for Assessment" (Turock) identifies strengths and weaknesses of various evaluation methods; (7) "The Potential Role of Public Library Accreditation for Evaluating Federally Funded Library Programs" (Leigh Estabrook) provides background information about adapting accreditation to the public library; (8) "FSCS and the Evaluation of LSCA" (Mary Jo Lynch) defines current and possible future roles of the Federal-State Cooperative System; and (9) "The National Diffusion Network: Its Potential for Libraries" (Ellen Altman and Philip M. Clark) recommends ways of improving the evaluation designs of federally funded projects. (SD) |
