Misguided Metrics: The Case for Context in Journal Evaluation
Conference Track
2. Collection Development & Assessment
Abstract
Prompted by a 20 percent budget reduction, librarians at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse surveyed faculty to learn more about their journal needs. In analyzing the data, we found a disconnect between faculty responses and journal use metrics. This presentation will explore those findings and their implications for collection development decisions.
