Should It Stay or Should It Go?
eLearning
Do you feel like you're wasting time putting together programming no one attends? Has your library invested time and money into a program that would positively impact the community, but no one attends? Do you hate the phrase "that's how it's always been done"—but don't know how to get the ball rolling toward doing things differently?
We've been there too and want to prepare you for the difficult conversations that come with a program overhaul—and show you how you can get past those program fails and reframe them as success. Get the tools to objectively analyze your existing programming, discuss program effectiveness with colleagues and stakeholders, and consider whether or not program resources can be better utilized—or canceled altogether.
By participating in this session, you will:
- Gain tools and information to assist in critically evaluating current program offerings and collections in your library.
- Learn how to objectively analyze your programs to ensure that they are worth the library's financial and staffing investment.
- Discover how to use these tools to assess a program's value in the short term as well as to forecast its long-term success.
- Become empowered to have difficult conversations about your programs' effectiveness with your supervisors, colleagues, and other stakeholders.
