“Measures that Matter Part Two: Detailing the Data-based Story
of Public Libraries”
Date & Time: Tuesday, June 13, 2017. 3:00 pm Eastern
Daylight Time (New York, GMT-04:00)
Presenters:
Rebecca Teasdale, Senior
Evaluation and Research Associate, Garibay Group; John Bertot, Associate
Provost for Faculty Affairs and Professor, College of Information Studies at
the University of Maryland; Linda Hofschire, Director, Library Research
Service, Colorado State Library
Description: In the United States, there are a number of national
surveys of public libraries and their patrons. While all of these efforts help
us tell a data-based story of public libraries, they differ in terms of their
samples, what types of data they collect, and how their data are collected,
stored, and accessed. During the first
webinar in this three-part
series, we scanned the landscape of major public library surveys and considered
how library data could be used more productively in the future. In this second
webinar, we will drill deeper into the concepts of sampling, data types, and
data management, and how they impact what we know about public libraries and
their patrons. At the end of this webinar, participants will have a greater
understanding of various sampling methods, recognize the differences between
inputs, outputs, and outcomes, and be aware of the data management practices
for various national public library surveys.
This
webinar is the second in a three-part series about the Institute of Museum and
Library Services’ and the Chief Officers of State Library Agencies’ Measures
that Matter initiative, a field-wide discussion of the current state of public
library data.

Kenn Bicknell, Digital
Resources Librarian, Los Angeles County
Metropolitan Transportation Authority Library and Archive
Description: How did a small two-person library capture national
media attention, become a focus of high-profile museum exhibits, and generate
13 million views of its online photos in just a few years? They built on a
framework of eight values to drive innovative services and greatly enhance the
information-seeking experience of their users. With a combination of free and
low-cost web tools, savvy marketing, and innovations borrowed from archives and
museums, Kenn Bicknell embarked on an aggressive digitization and outreach
program to push information out to his constituents in creative, engaging ways.
Find inspiration and practical ideas that can breathe new life into your
collections and keep libraries front and center in users' lives.
