| Library Surveys
The library conducts all kinds of surveys to learn about what we're doing well and where we can do things better. Surveys let us know what our users are looking for when they come into the building or use our website. Where do we need better signage? Can people find the databases they need quickly and easily? |
Assessment Plan (Coming Soon!)
The who, what, when, where and why of the Library's measurement activities. Our assessment plan outlines what information we will be tracking, how we will use the data and the expected outcomes that will help the Library better meet the needs of the Portland State community |
| Improvement Projects
What do we do with all of the data we collect with our studies, surveys and focus groups? We make things better. We analyze the qualitative and quantitative information we've gathered and make changes that improve our resources and services for library users. |
