Hi All,
This project is for the State Library of Iowa
Project Description: Evaluation of newly implemented accreditation program update. The changes were made starting July 1, 2016, and the first round of applications were submitted by February 28, 2018.
Question/Problem Statement: Does the current accreditation program encourage excellent library service to Iowans?
Statement of Why: Our current strategic plan contains a project requiring us to “Administer an accreditation program that encourages excellent service to Iowans, as defined by In Service to Iowa: Public Library Standards. The main purpose of this evaluation is to ensure that it is providing the stated service. If not, we will need to make improvements to the current program. Ultimately we will report the results of the evaluation to IMLS as part of our strategic planning process.
We have gathered some data from respondents but are at a stage were I'm not sure what to do next.
