Resilient services: developing new measures and metrics for impact and value
  

Online, Tuesday 27 October 2020

10am-1pm

 

This half-day online workshop led by Matt Finch of mechanicaldolphin.com will introduce participants to tools and approaches which allow them to identify, describe, and define the impact services have on the communities they serve.

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented challenges and changed how we deliver services. As we look beyond traditional transactional measures like loans and footfall, how can we capture and evidence the differences we are still making to our communities, both qualitatively and quantitatively?

The workshop draws on Matt's experiences working on strategy and evaluation with libraries in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. This highly participatory session is suitable for staff at all levels in library, knowledge and information services across all sectors.

Why you should attend

By the end of the half-day event attendees will have:

 

  • An understanding of the changing nature of value

  • A framework for mapping and identifying the impact of the service's relationships

  • Tools for judging the value of a metric and spotting opportunities for a service to generate new impact
