Le New Measures Initiative de l’American Library Association (ARL) A CREPUQ 1 février 2005 Montreal, Canada Martha Kyrillidou Director, ARL Statistics and Measurement Association of Research Libraries

The Association of Research Libraries Mission: influences the changing environment of scholarly communication and the public policies that affect research libraries and the communities they serve. Members: 123 major research libraries in North America. Ratios: 4% of the higher education institutions providing 40% of the information resources. Users: 3 million students and faculty served. Expenditures: $3 billion annually of which 25% is invested in access to electronic resources.

Web Presence

Traditional Statistics Longest and consistent data series (1908- ) Describe level of investment Define membership for the Association of Research Libraries Used for budget justification purposes Used for benchmarking with other peer institutions Describe trends in scholarly communication and for research libraries in general

The Challenge of Assessment in Academic Libraries Traditional statistics emphasize inputs, expenditures, acquisitions, holdings, etc. National Rankings are often misleading No demonstrable relationship between expenditures and service quality The lack of metrics describing outcomes: success from the user’s point of view

Assessment “The difficulty lies in trying to find a single model or set of simple indicators that can be used by different institutions, and that will compare something across large groups that is by definition only locally applicable—i.e., how well a library meets the needs of its institution. Librarians have either made do with oversimplified national data or have undertaken customized local evaluations of effectiveness, but there has not been devised an effective way to link the two.” Sarah Pritchard, Library Trends, 1996

Needs that Create Opportunity Increasing demand for libraries to demonstrate outcomes/impacts in areas important to the institution. Increasing pressure to maximize use of resources – benchmark best practices to save or reallocate resources.

New Measures Initiatives Collaboration among member leaders with strong interest in this area Specific projects developed with different models for exploration Intent to make resulting tools and methodologies available to full membership and wider community

Measuring Collections In an environment with increasing emphasis on digital resources, what are the metrics that are appropriate for describing and characterizing collections, and what collection trends are particularly important to identify and track over time?
