What are libraries most worried about?
1. Sustaining Relevance2. Millennial user behavioral mutations3. Balancing print, electronic and new services and
resources4. Understanding Diversity5. E-Learning and Distance Education challenges6. Justifying growth and projects – Measures not Stats7. Understanding mutating (not changing) usage
patterns – info not data8. Building community partnerships with authority9. Building for the future and not repairing the present10.Productivity and shifting staff resources11.Budgets and Fundraising
SURVIVALSURVIVAL

Big Questions
1. How do we gain insights into changes in our ecology through our usability and user behavior studies, and our trend insights as shown through our statistics and measurements?
2. Can we really know the underlying reasons for users’ interactions with library services?
3. Can we easily and cheaply compare ourselves to other libraries, other agencies, or communities?
4. Can we back up our qualitative stories with quantitative measurements and data - proofs?
5. If we had the proofs, would it help our strategies, fundraising and tactical implementations?
6. Are we happy with the present?

Acting like a business but being a library
• Knowing Customers like WalMart™
• Giving service like Nordstrom™• Being as efficient as GE™• Delivering an experience like
Amazon™• Having the budget of Google™• Living the brand

How do you persuade??
• Data, charts and graphs – help but dry• Debate & Argument – a little confrontational• Conversation – a lot of effort, scales poorly• Narrative storytelling – captures the energy of
the population and persists

• Start with understanding the users in terms of their real:– needs, preferences, and desires– goals and aspirations– expectations and assumptions– values and their beliefs– tolerance for risk and change

• Personas are understood through discovery by: – Gathering data to identify possible
“anchors”– Observing behavior – Pattern emergence in narrative

Personas
• Personas are hypothetical representations of a natural grouping of users that drive decision-making for development projects.– They are defined by goals. – They focus on what is valuable to the
user and subsequently on how he or she behaves.
• They are not Stereotypes or Archetypes

Goals: Help team build the base infrastructure for .NET products. Construct the base set of services that ship with the product and compose the core of a distributed framework for hosting distributed services. Add queuing semantics and associated locking, classification and routing of messages, subscriptions, efficient filtering, fan-out, etc., to the server. Integrate new distributed communication semantics to the existing SQL Server programming model. Demonstrate ability to communicate and work well with other teams.
Usage Scenario: Henry has been around long enough to build a solid network of resources to call when he has specific questions about products or programs. He often learns about new technologies or processes through casual conversation with his friends and coworkers in the hallway. He uses Yahoo! for general information gathering because he likes the simplicity of the site design and the breadth of information available.
The Portal is not his start page—he usually just types in the URL directly. He rarely reads the content on the first page because he doesn't want to know what's going on with general companywide PR information. He's somewhat cynical about "companywide" internal releases and dislikes company politics. However, on a personal level, he does want to know about the schedules that the applications are on so he can plan. He's frustrated that there's no place you can go to find product information all in one spot.
Info-Seeking Behavior: When Henry needs specific information, he generally e-mails or phones a friend. He is a member of about 15 different DLs that used to be manageable, but now he finds it increasingly difficult to keep up.
He typically uses the Portal to search for internal information across the companywide intranet or to find other internal sites. He comes to the portal about four-five times a week by typing in the URL and stays for less than 15 minutes at a time. He rarely, if ever, goes to there to find general information about the company or the industry as a whole. He uses internal databases to find internal information on products or code. If he's frustrated by something, he'll go there and find solutions rather than go outside to support or to a dot-com. "You used to have to drill down pretty deep to find personalized information, but now it's easier." He tends to bookmark pages in the portal because he hates having to go 5 levels down. He'll use that bookmark until it breaks, then he has to research it again. He would like to have favorites on the portal.

• In summary, by seeing the world through the lens of the customer, we create an:– Opportunity to increase customer satisfaction
and return visits – Opportunity for everyone in the organization
to work to achieve the same goals, efficiently, and an
– Opportunity to have a clear, and achievable direction.
• Pandora’s Box – Exciting but a little dangerous

A perspective on developing better measurement and communication tools for
librarians
![Page 31: Real Measurements for Libraries in an Internet Age: A report on the Normative Data Project](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681382a550346895d9fd819/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What Problem do we want or have
to Solve ?
![Page 32: Real Measurements for Libraries in an Internet Age: A report on the Normative Data Project](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681382a550346895d9fd819/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Our Objective
• Empower our Clients to Thrive – our success is dependent on their success
• Get the Measurement Tools into the Right Hands– Directors and Management– Supervisors– Collection Developers– Librarians– Library boards and trustees
– and also the regular folks in Finance / IT
![Page 33: Real Measurements for Libraries in an Internet Age: A report on the Normative Data Project](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681382a550346895d9fd819/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
•Follow the BAM (Business Activity Monitoring) model
• Present a more holistic view of the enterprise
• Focus on underlying message in the data
• Incorporate a “dashboards” format for quick access
• Create a metrics monitoring tool for decision support
• what-if analysis
• Alert threshold triggers
• Shift the dynamic from static reporting to fluid analytics
• Create a “Discovery” Environment
Our Design Goals
![Page 34: Real Measurements for Libraries in an Internet Age: A report on the Normative Data Project](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681382a550346895d9fd819/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Results:• Improved support for “Customer” Understanding
• Encourages informed, data-driven decisions
• Provides data to support the Stories
• Closer alignment of library services to the customer
• “Board Ready” output for effective presentations (the power of persuasion!)
• Finger-tip access to management level data for deep collection use analysis
•Supports strategic development of your institution’s mission

Normative Data ProjectNormative Data Project
• Potential:– 300+ library systems– 2,500 library service outlets and branches– Over 1 billion annual circ transactions for
up to three years
• Today– Already 30,000,000 items– Already 52 systems– Already almost 500 libraries
– And more…

Normative Data ProjectNormative Data Project
• Includes:• Harvested, privacy-safe data on almost
everything that is tracked in a library:– Circulation– Backroom: Technical services, cataloguing– Acquisitions and budgets– Web site traffic– Licensed content usage– Currently Unicorn and Horizon datasets but
more will be considered
• Harvested semi-annually, reported quarterly

Normative Data ProjectNormative Data Project
• Includes:• Amazing extra features
– NCES statistics– Budget and expenditure data– U.S. Census data– Detailed GIS Maps from FSU partnership
• All FULLY integrated• Current focused on Public Libraries.• Future Projects include Academic,
College and Schools.
