L-Index: Designing a New Method for Measuring Library Impact in CanadaHamilton Public Library
Presented at OLA Super Conference 2016
In recent years, libraries around the world have been conducting impact studies, predominantly economic impact studies, to communicate their value to stakeholders. While these studies are useful, they often exclude the social, educational and cultural impacts that libraries make within their communities. To address this gap, Dr. Mary Cavanagh, Dr. Bill Irwin and Kimberly Silk are collaborating to develop the L-Index, a library evaluation methodology and toolkit designed to aid libraries in assessing their economic, social, cultural and educational impact. The team will present their work to date, and invite feedback from session delegates.

Abstract: Searches, sessions, article requests - have access to data, but what's the next step? Learn how the University of Arizona Libraries' Spending Reductions Project analyzed usage of different types of resources to assess them against quality standards and make cancellation decisions. Tools, challenges, and organizational approaches will also be discussed.
Cost-per-use vs. hours-per-report: usage data collection and the value of sta...NASIG
Cost-per-use for electronic journals has become a common standard for judging the value of individual titles, but the reports needed to make such judgments can be complex to create. Different options exist for collecting, collating and reporting the necessary data. This session will look at the costs estimated for the in-house process followed at the University of Mississippi, and how those costs in personnel time compared to pricing from outside vendors. It will also report on a survey of other libraries that use outside vendors to judge the perceived value of those services.
The survey data reported in the presentation is available upon request from the presenter.

Strategic Metrics, presented at the Leadership Seminar on Strategy, Assessment and Service Development. University of Lund, Sweden. 19th September 2012. Presentation by Selena Killick, Cranfield University. Presentation discusses the need for assessment of Library Strategies and some of the techniques available to achieve this.
A program called "Top Library Building Trends" that was conducted at ALA Annual 2010 (June 28, 2010) by LLAMA BES.
A panel of architects, librarians and consultants will provide an overview of new and exciting ideas in planning public and academic library facilities. Topics will include the rethinking of spaces for services, new building design, and other “must have” items to keep your library up-to-date. Each panelist will provide a brief presentation with slides. The entire panel will then field questions from the audience.
Speakers: Kimberly Bolan Cullin, Providence Associates LLC, Indianapolis, IN; Joan Frye Williams, Sacramento, CA, Library Consultant and Futurist; Barbara Norland, District of Columbia Public Library, Senior Librarian, Building Projects; Jeffrey Scherer, Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle, Ltd. Architects, Architect; Richard Sweeney, New Jersey Institute of Technology, University Librarian.
One of the presentations from a program called "Where Did the Money Go?!: Understanding Hidden Expenses That Derail Small Scale Renovations". It was coordinated by LLAMA BES at ALA Annual 2010 (June 26, 2010).
Many library leaders will find themselves planning a remodel of library space. Whether repurposing for a new use or just improving function and aesthetics, a limited budget can be eaten up by existing building issues: HVAC problems, asbestos abatement, interruption of systems, or simple staging logistics. Experts will share with attendees what to watch for, what questions to ask, and how to plan to anticipate these considerations so that project goals are met.

One of the presentations from the program called "Orchestrating PR to Get Funding". It was presented at ALA Annual 2010 (June 27, 2010) and coordinated by LLAMA PRMS.
Learn how to orchestrate your organization’s message for results when speaking to politicians and the public. Hear from speakers who use quantitative and qualitative measures to get funding and advocate for their libraries. Leaders must select focused tools for their audience. Studies have shown that quantitative measures are useful to convince some groups while a story with the personal touch is what convinces others.
Speakers: Laura K. Lee Dellinger, Metropolitan Group, Principal/Senior Executive Vice President; Joe Matthews, JRM Consulting, President; Felton Thomas, Jr., Cleveland Public Library, Director.
Program conducted by LLAMA - MAES at ALA Annual 2010.
Informal assessment techniques can be used to quickly evaluate and improve services throughout the library. This fast-paced program features presenters from 8-10 libraries who will share various types of informal assessment, the time commitment required, and how assessment led to service improvements throughout the library. Attendees will gain an understanding of how informal assessment can be incorporated into decision-making at all levels and lead to a culture of assessment.
Presentation by Jan Maxwell (Ohio University Library, Assistant Dean, Collections & Access) as part of a program called "Common(s) Wisdom: Designing Graduate and Faculty Spaces that Work". Program was hosted by LLAMA - BES at the ALA Annual 2010 conference.
If you build it, will they come? Does the concept of a separate "Research" or "Scholarly" Commons meet identified needs? Is there a sure-fire mix of research and teaching support spaces guaranteed to meet the demands of this vital (and vocal) group? What are the challenges in designing and living in these facilities? Learn how two libraries are enhancing the scholar’s experience. Come away with proven ideas to use in your own library.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
