The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) is committed to supporting and developing outcomes-based measures to assist libraries in moving beyond inputs and outputs in order to better demonstrate library impact on research, teaching and learning. Through the delivery of assessment-related programming, information sharing, and support for relevant research, CARL supports members as they use outcomes-based evidence to establish the research library’s return on investment or other measures of its value.

It is with this strategic initiative in mind that CARL and the University of Victoria Libraries invite you to participate in the Canadian Library Assessment Workshop (CLAW) which will take place in Victoria on October 26 & 27, 2017. A pre-conference workshop will also be held October 25, 2017. This event will be of interest to all academic and research libraries engaged in assessment. The program will be comprised of 1 to 1.5 hour workshop style sessions with topics such as:

  • Qualitative assessment techniques
  • Metrics for institutional repositories
  • Organizational assessment
  • Making use of institutional assessment

Participants will leave the workshop with tangible and practical ideas to take back to their libraries. Registration is limited.
