The 2014 LibQUAL+ notebook for the ARL group of survey participants (PDF) is freely available for download. The notebook details the results from 9,331 survey respondents—students, faculty, and staff—at the 10 university members of ARL that conducted LibQUAL+ in 2014.
LibQUAL+ is a suite of services offered by ARL that libraries use to solicit, track, understand, and act upon users’ opinions of service quality. The program’s centerpiece is a rigorously tested web-based survey bundled with training that helps libraries assess and improve library services, change organizational culture, and market the library.
Registration for the 2015 LibQUAL+ survey is open and available at http://www.libqual.org/.
