contents Measuring Outcomes: Applying Cost-Benefit Analysis to Middle-Sized and Smaller Public Libraries. Holt, Glen E. Elliott, Donald Accountability Cost Effectiveness Costs Evaluation Methods Library Expenditures Library Funding Library Services Measurement Techniques Public Libraries Research Methodology The recent demand for more accountability from public libraries has made it essential that true cost-benefit analysis be applied to their operations. The authors developed a cost-benefit analysis methodology and applied it to five large public library systems. This article describes ongoing research to modify their methodologies to make them viable for application to public libraries of a much smaller size. (Author/AEF)
