Assessment
Regina Mays
Head (Interim) of Assessment Programs and Collection Strategy
I foster a culture of assessment throughout the Libraries and help us keep on track toward our strategic goals. I currently lead the Assessment Programs and Collection Strategy department and the Strategic Achievement Review (StAR) team. Contact me for all things assessment, including consultations on designing, conducting, and analyzing assessment projects such as surveys, focus groups, observational studies, usability studies and other types of assessment. Also contact me for questions about our strategic plan and setting goals.
Louis Becker
Assessment Programs Librarian
I manage and analyze data about the Libraries to evaluate our collections and services, and convene the Assessment Planning Group. I compile library statistics and build visual and textual reports from Alma data and other sources. Contact me for help with the Liaison Dashboard, collection statistics and other data for collection development, PowerBI, gate counts, the MISO survey and peer institution comparisons.
Jennifer Mezick

I lead the Collection Strategy unit and co-chair the Collections Committee. Contact me about requests for continuing resources or large one-time purchases as well as general questions about collection development and management.
Gail Williams
Collections Evaluation Specialist
I oversee the collection of usage data for electronic products, conduct collection evaluation activities, and manage various collections related projects, including the annual Faculty Bookplate Reception. Contact me for help with GOBI reports and approval profile adjustments, and with requests for office copies of books.
