Assessing the Effectiveness of Library Service. Occasional Paper Number 152.
Du Mont, Rosemary Ruhig; Du Mont, Paul F.
Discussions of goal, process, and structure approaches for measuring library service effectiveness are reviewed and a scheme integrating these approaches is presented. Preferred ways of reviewing library effectiveness are identified for four major constituencies: staff, directors, users, and societal groups such as funding agencies. A discussion of goals as organizational intentions and as outcomes leads to a 2-part goal model: goal typology and systems model. Two figures and 38 references are provided. (RBF)
