Assessment
“The difficulty lies in trying to find a single model or set of simple indicators that can be used by different institutions, and that will compare something across large groups that is by definition only locally applicable—i.e., how well a library meets the needs of its institution. Librarians have either made do with oversimplified national data or have undertaken customized local evaluations of effectiveness, but there has not been
devised an effective way to link the two.”
Sarah Pritchard, Library Trends, 1996

Multiple Methodsof Listening to Customers Transactional surveys* Mystery shopping New, declining, and lost-customer surveys Focus group interviews Customer advisory panels Service reviews Customer complaint, comment, and inquiry capture Total market surveys* Employee field reporting Employee surveys Service operating data capture*A SERVQUAL-type instrument is most suitable for these methodsNote. A. Parasuraman. The SERVQUAL Model: Its Evolution And Current Status. (2000).

Interpreting Service Quality Data
Three Interpretation Frameworks
![Page 15: Project URL – TM LibQUAL+ ™ Introduction Seattle / London January, 2007 Presented by: Colleen Cook Bruce Thompson.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7b5503460f94b7bd90/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Benchmarking Against Peer Institutions
--1,000,000 Users; 1,000 Institutions!
NORMS! NORMS! NORMS!
Interpretation Framework #1
![Page 16: Project URL – TM LibQUAL+ ™ Introduction Seattle / London January, 2007 Presented by: Colleen Cook Bruce Thompson.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7b5503460f94b7bd90/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Score Norms
Norm Conversion Tables facilitate the interpretation of observed scores using norms created for a large and representative sample.
LibQUAL+™ norms have been created at both the individual and institutional level
![Page 17: Project URL – TM LibQUAL+ ™ Introduction Seattle / London January, 2007 Presented by: Colleen Cook Bruce Thompson.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7b5503460f94b7bd90/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Institutional Norms for PerceivedMeans on 25 Core Questions
Note: Thompson, B. LibQUAL+ Spring 2002 Selected Norms, (2002).

Benchmarking Against Self, Longitudinally
“Nobody is more like me than me!”--Anonymous
Interpretation Framework #2

Interpreting Perceived Scores Against Minimally-Acceptable and Desired
Service Levels (i.e., “Zones of Tolerance”)
Interpretation Framework #3
