From EBLIP to Assessment
The document discusses the relationship between evidence-based library and information practice (EBLIP) and library assessment, questioning whether they represent two separate movements or potential for integration. It emphasizes the importance of establishing a culture of assessment within libraries, where decisions are informed by evidence and analysis to optimize service delivery. Key processes outlined include articulating problems, assembling evidence, appraising it, and adapting practices based on findings.
