Responding to LibQUAL+ Survey CommentsJames Shedlock, AMLS, Director, j-shedlock@northwestern.eduLast spring we reported on the results of the Galter Library’s LibQUAL+ survey that measures the quality of library collections and services. For the most part, the survey results indicated that users perceive the Galter Library in a positive way when it comes to quality collections and services. That’s not to say everything is perfect. Far from it, and users have told us what they think is good and not so good about the Galter Library in the survey’s comments section. The purpose of this issue of Library Notes is to respond to some of those comments. This is our way of telling you that we are listening to your concerns and ideas for improvement. We can tell you what we are planning to do, or tell you why some ideas need to wait before implementation. We hope to shed some light on users’ concerns by sharing our perspective and what we can or cannot do about specific problems facing the library. Meet the StaffLinda O'Dwyer, MSLIS, Education Librarian, l-odwyer@northwestern.edu
The recent LibQUAL+ survey was filled with positive comments on our staff here at Galter. Here’s a chance to find out who we are, what we do, and how we can help you in the future. |
