Forget Gate Counts: Assessing Transformative Programming

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

One of the five strategic goals of the William H. Hannon Library is to contribute to “formative and transformative education of the whole person through outreach and programming.” Through events such as the annual Haunting of Hannon, the Hannon Human Library, and the Spring Women’s Voices series, the library outreach team at Loyola Marymount University seeks to create experiences that reach beyond connecting students to information resources and highlight the library as a transformative force in student life. Measuring the success of these experiences requires targeted evaluation methods similar to those used for library instruction. This presentation will outline the design, workflow, and results of applying evaluation methods created for library instruction toward library outreach and programming, including the formation of a rubric and student learning outcomes.
