Subject: LAMA (MAES) Preconference Workshop
LAMA Measurement Assessment and Evaluation Section (MAES) Preconference
Workshop
LAMA MAES is sponsoring the pre-conference workshop “Living the Balanced
Scorecard”
Friday, June 27, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm during the ALA Annual 2008 conference
in Anaheim. The
workshop will feature Joe Matthews, Director of Mathews and Associates
and author of the
soon to be released “Scorecard for Results” (Libraries Unlimited, May
2008, $45 retail cost).
The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is an organizational tool enabling library
management to develop
a method for focusing on customers, understanding their needs and
demands for library services,
and demonstrating accountability for using public funds. The BSC
provides library management
with supporting data needed to implement data driven decisions.
Attendees will receive as part of their registration a copy of
“Scorecard for Results” at no extra
charge. Using case studies as examples, presenters will guide workshop
attendees through how
to develop strategy, performance measures, targets and initiatives, and
then how to integrate these
results and communicate them effectively. Other presenters are Susanna
Pathak of the Virginia
Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA and Kathryn Robinson of the
Orange County Public
Library System in Orlando, FL.
We invite you to register and learn more about how to practice the
Balanced Scorecard technique,
a valuable tool for your library’s assessment needs!
