Evidence informs the practice of librarianship, helps us plan for program growth, and ensures that learners are learning. Evidence is also about leadership. Careful use of selected emerging tools presents new models for librarians, teachers, and students to leverage technology for their own collaboration and analysis. Joyce, Michelle and Shannon share a toolkit of innovative approaches for gathering and analyzing evidence, tools that demonstrate vision, accountability, and professional leadership to reinvigorate your practice.
