How Can Researchers' Browsing Behaviors Inform Library Space-Planning?, Sarah Pickle
How Can Researchers' Browsing Behaviors Inform Library Space-Planning?, Sarah Pickle
Southeastern Library Assessment Conference
This study is an in-depth, qualitative analysis of the ways academics at the Claremont Colleges browse library materials, both print and electronic, for their research. Many academic libraries today are struggling with the question of how best to accommodate the quantity of print materials they routinely acquire as those volumes increasingly strain the capacity of their physical spaces. It is hoped this project will help these institutions identify which subject-based collections and which format types researchers need to have immediately accessible for physical perusal and which they can browse productively online.

Time Crunch: How To Fit Assessment Into An Already Packed Lesson, Liz Johns, Sara Oestreich
Southeastern Library Assessment Conference
Learning assessment can be daunting for a librarian who wants to try it out for the first time, or too time consuming for librarians who only get a few minutes with students. But this practical program introduces librarians to common, easy, and quick formative assessments that can immediately be implemented into even the shortest of sessions. This session will help librarians identify key points in example lessons where formative assessment can be inserted, and brainstorm ways to implement the assessments in an effective way.

As space in libraries is usually finite and in high demand, how can librarians ensure the best allocation of space to meet users' ever growing and changing needs? A team from the University of Tennessee's School of Information Sciences and Libraries designed and implemented two academic library space assessment studies to find meaningful answers to these questions as well as learn the principles, methods, and tools of space design and space assessment, many of which they will share with session attendees!

Simplifying The Process: Using Technology To Integrate Event And Program Assessment From Start To Finish, Heather White, Amanda Mclellan
Southeastern Library Assessment Conference
Event assessment shouldn't be painful or mysterious, so how can we leverage technology to demystify and simplify program and event assessment? This session targets libraries interested in reflecting on their own event and program assessment and how an open-source application may help streamline their processes. This session will illustrate how we identified problems and used technology and thoughtful planning to streamline and demystify the event planning and assessment, resulting in an open-source application that handles event/program requests, approvals, and pre-generated assessment forms.
