Process: ▪ Spreadsheets with resources by type▪ Divided up work ▪ Potential cancellations posted for feedback

indicate at least one use.”

Monographs Cut flat amount Cuts applied to book budget based on QS Impact:▪ Decreases flexibility in having funds for one-time purchases.▪ Increases amount of budget expended for ongoing costs.

“95% of individual journal titles will show evidence of use based on articles published in those journal titles within
the last 3 years.”

Print journals
![Page 13: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Print + online journals (dual format)
![Page 14: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
E-journals
![Page 15: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Issue: Lack of data for journals
Recommendations for changes in QS for journals Expand definition of evidence of use: LJUR Local delivery of articles from print journalsCost per use for electronic journalsUse of a title in an aggregator database
![Page 16: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“Cost per use of electronic journal publisher packages will not exceed
twice the cost needed to provide ILL at the level of use.”
![Page 17: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
E-journal Packages
![Page 18: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Recommendations for changes in QS for electronic journal packages: Cost per use may be a more useful data point Future evaluation may include looking at use of
individual titles in packages
![Page 19: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
“For online indexes and abstracting services, not more than 40% of content needed by customers is duplicated in other packages or
individual subscriptions”
![Page 20: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Indexing & Abstracting (I&A) Databases 53 I&A databases 26 analyzed (about ½) 65% of those analyzed met or exceeded the QS of 60% unique Overlap analysis with ISSN lists in Ulrich’s Serials Analysis
![Page 21: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Issues: ISSN lists Excludes other resources indexed in a database Limitation of tools How many comparisons to make?
Recommendations for changes in QS for I&A databases:
Useful as base comparison but in consideration with other factors Cost per use (searches/sessions)
![Page 22: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Duplication: less than 40% duplication in other owned or subscribed resources.
Embargoing: less than 10% of materials are embargoed.
Completeness of coverage: 90% of articles are included.
Customer need for non-duplicated articles: less than 30% of non-duplicated items represent low-value or
unneeded resources.

Aggregator Databases 21 aggregators 7 partially analyzed (the indexing and full-text component)
![Page 24: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Issues: Inconsistent information Time-consuming What to compare? Moving target
Recommendations for changes in QS for Aggregators:
Implementation of this multi-part quality standard is impractical. Cost per use (full-text downloads)
![Page 25: We've Got the Data - Now What Do We Do About It? Applying Quality Standard to Assess Information Resources - Mary Feeney, Jim Martin, Ping Situ](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a22c611a28abf8348b4569/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
No data?
No quality standard?

Project management approach with small group worked well
Communication within the library at all levels and with stakeholders is important
First time the IRM quality standards were put into practice across all disciplines and types of resources
