A library that recognizes the need for and benefits of assessment of performance
and service presents rewarding opportunities for staff to become
more engaged in their work and to identify more strongly with the library’s
mission and goals. The process and results of both quantitative and qualitative
assessment efforts offer possibilities for employees to develop new skills,
take on new tasks, and embark on new jobs. Integrating organizational
assessment activities into the library’s routine helps the library to understand
and more fully satisfy customer needs. It also encourages the library
to anticipate future needs while remaining flexible enough to manage the
organization’s response to change easily and effectively.
