With support from the Western New York Library Resources Council (WNYLRC), we offered a webinar discussing issues regarding the Academic Library Survey Component yesterday and it was attended by multiple colleagues across the country. The Future of IPEDS: The Need for Quality Library Data, presented by Sara Goek, PhD, Project Manager, Data and Research, Association of College & Research Libraries; Martha Kyrillidou, PhD, MEd, MLS, QualityMetrics LLC; and Catherine Stollar Peters, PhD, Associate Director of Assessment and Data Analysis, SUNY Office of Library and Information Services on April 30, 2024.
Remember, the deadline for leaving a comment ends this Friday, May 3, 2024! We hope that this webinar encouraged you to leave a comment on the Federal Register page regarding the future directions of IPEDS, and more specifically the future of ALC within IPEDS.
