- Now What? Lessons Learned from a Diversity Audit María Evelia Emerson Library Materials Library Services Evaluation Methods Diversity Data Analysis Outcome Measures Academic Libraries Comparative Analysis Time Perspective Followup Studies Job Analysis Policy Formation Diversity audits are frequently used as an assessment method to measure the diversity of a library collection. Yet, there is not frequent research on the aftermath of diversity audits, especially in the context of comparing data from several audits to assess the difference in the makeup of a library collection. In this article, the author discusses the changes a small academic library made in response to a diversity audit conducted several years before, as well as the results of a new, smaller audit to confirm that the initial audit had an impact. This article shares the results of the new audit and reflects on the lessons learned during the process.
