Zusammenfassung: | Academic and public libraries are continuing to transform as the information landscape changes, expanding their missions into new service roles that call for improved organizational performance and accountability. This extensively revised and updated edition explores further the ways technology influences both the experiences of library customers and the ways libraries themselves can assess those experiences. With a focus on real-world application, the authors challenge conventional thinking about the utility of input, output, and performance metrics by suggesting new ways to think about the evaluation and assessment of library services; explain service quality and customer satisfaction, and demonstrate how they are separate but intertwined; identify procedures for qualitatively and quantitatively measuring both service quality and satisfaction; encourage libraries to take action by presenting concrete steps they can take to become more customer-centric; and offer a range of customer-related metrics that provide insights useful for library planning and decision making, such as surveys and focus groups. This book shows how to nurture an environment of continuous improvement through effective service quality assessment. |

This extensively revised and updated edition explores further the ways technology influences both the experiences of library customers and the ways libraries themselves can assess those experiences. With a focus on real-world application, the authors challenge conventional thinking about the utility of input, output, and performance metrics by suggesting new ways to think about the evaluation and assessment of library services; explain service quality and customer satisfaction, and demonstrate how they are separate but intertwined; identify procedures for qualitatively and quantitatively measuring both service quality and satisfaction; encourage libraries to take action by presenting concrete steps they can take to become more customer-centric; and offer a range of customer-related metrics that provide insights useful for library planning and decision making, such as surveys and focus groups. This book shows how to nurture an environment of continuous improvement through effective service quality assessment.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Public services (Libraries)</subfield><subfield code="x">Evaluation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Public services (Libraries)</subfield><subfield code="z">United States</subfield><subfield code="x">Evaluation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Bibliothèques</subfield><subfield code="x">Services aux usagers</subfield><subfield code="x">Évaluation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Bibliothèques</subfield><subfield code="x">Services aux usagers</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis</subfield><subfield code="x">Évaluation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES</subfield><subfield code="x">Library & Information Science</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Public services (Libraries)</subfield><subfield code="x">Evaluation</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Bibliothèques</subfield><subfield code="x">Services aux publics</subfield><subfield code="x">Évaluation.</subfield><subfield code="2">ram</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Bibliothèques</subfield><subfield code="x">Services aux publics</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis</subfield><subfield code="x">Évaluation.</subfield><subfield code="2">ram</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Publik service på bibliotek.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Utvärderingsmetodik.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Electronic book.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Altman, Ellen.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Dugan, Robert E.,</subfield><subfield code="d">1952-</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCjxg3Hr7vFrRcCKmjv7tBq</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n90611410</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Hernon, Peter.</subfield><subfield code="t">Assessing service quality.</subfield><subfield code="b">Third edition</subfield><subfield code="z">9780838913086</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2014042718</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)902599179</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1004912</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL - Ebook Library</subfield><subfield code="b">EBLB</subfield><subfield code="n">EBL2070050</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBSCOhost</subfield><subfield code="b">EBSC</subfield><subfield code="n">1004912</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">17259159</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">12483355</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Internet Archive</subfield><subfield code="b">INAR</subfield><subfield code="n">assessingservice0000hern_ed03</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="994" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">92</subfield><subfield code="b">GEBAY</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="049" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">DE-863</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Academic and public libraries are continuing to transform as the information landscape changes, expanding their missions into new service roles that call for improved organizational performance and accountability.
