Abstract

Over the past two decades, evidence-based practice and its application to library and information science has been an evolving focus of discussion, experimentation and application among researchers and practitioners. This presentation will discuss opportunities for theological libraries to apply evidence-based practice in evaluating collections and services in order to better demonstrate value to stakeholders, gain a deeper understanding of client needs and experiences, promote robust decision-making and improve service delivery.
