Webinar Recording

 

View the recording of the recent webinar "Project Outcome Part 2: Evaluating Library Instruction at 2-Year and 4-Year Institutions: Findings and Data Analysis." Librarians from Seminole State College of Florida and University of Central Florida will share their experience using Project Outcome for analysis of a cross-institutional research project. We'll discuss our process, methodology, and the findings from this research. Using our experience as a case study, we hope to generate ideas for others interested in exploring Project Outcome for other research projects. This may include identifying opportunities, planning and implementation considerations, and analyzing results. 

New Feature: NSSE High-Impact Practices (HIPs)

 

Tag Project Outcome surveys with one or more HIPs and track results by practice. Read this new resource to learn about HIPs, why they matter to academic libraries, and how to use them when you measure the outcomes of your library programs and services.

What is Project Outcome?

We help libraries understand and share the true impact of their services and programs with simple surveys and an easy-to-use process to measure and analyze outcomes. Project Outcome is a free toolkit offering libraries access to training, data analytics, and standardized surveys that measure outcomes in key library service areas.
