Event in Ottawa – Meaningful Measures: Why Size Doesn’t Matter (nope, volume doesn’t either)

Posted by CLA Govt Library and Info Mgmt Professionals Network on 2010/01/25

Wednesday, March 3, 2010, 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm
Ottawa Public Library Auditorium (120 Metcalfe)

Libraries and other information-intensive organizations must identify, manage and communicate measures that matter to their stakeholders, and that demonstrate that the information services are making a difference – the “right” difference.

Rebecca leads a discussion focusing on defining, analyzing, and conveying performance measures that are meaningful to your situation, and provides a framework to help you really implement it after the meeting (or the next day…)!

About the Speaker

She teaches continuing education and professional development courses with the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Information, where she chairs the Professional Learning Centre’s Advisory Board.
