Initial Assessment Measures
We have identified a few criteria by which to gauge the success of the Library Forum and the change in scope of the Academic Assembly. We recognize that it will take some time to make a lasting cultural change and that we should repeat assessments over a reasonably extended period. The criteria are
- Level of participation by both academic and non-academic staff in the new Library Forum. This could be measured by
- attendance at meetings
- number of members volunteering to serve on committees
- number of votes cast for candidates for the Library Forum Steering Committee
- degree of satisfaction with programs and activities of the Library Forum as measured by evaluations and employee surveys
- Level of participation in the Academic Assembly. This could be measured by
- attendance at meetings
- number of members volunteering to run for the Academic Assembly Steering Committee and to serve on other committees that might be formed
- number of votes cast for candidates for the Academic Assembly Steering Committee
- degree of satisfaction with programs and activities of the Academic Assembly as measured by evaluations and surveys
- Improvement in staff’s perception of how rank and status affect their ability to participate in the work of the CUL community as measured by ClimateQUAL or other survey instruments
