Overview
The Values-Sensitive Library Assessment Toolkit serves to model a value system for library assessment practice, with the goal of helping practitioners identify and apply the values that are important to their work. The toolkit takes the form of a card deck, presenting 10 values along with 3 activities for working with the values. The toolkit is based on a national study of library assessment practitioners (for more on the research underlying the toolkit, view the presentation at the 2022 Library Assessment Conference). Two sample cards are shown below, followed by a digital share link and a printable download of the toolkit.
