2. Outline of the presentation
• overarching aims
• methods, approach & timetable
• required engagement
• CE’s example work
3. Overarching objectives
• key questions:
– what benefits have been achieved and can be anticipated
going forwards as a result of the shared Library Management
System?
• evidence
• framework
• key outputs
– conceptual framework
– some quantitative evidence on benefits to date
– recommended approaches for measuring benefits in future
4. Proposed approach
• methods
– desk-based research
– data gathering
• data use
– workshop
• assessing the possibility of measuring benefits in
quantitative terms
• testing the feasibility of implementing different
techniques to measure different future benefits
among institutions/as a consortium
6. Engagement
• two workshops
– July
– early September
• interviews
– following second workshop
• September to November
• establishing bilateral exchanges with key personnel
within institutions
7. CE’s example work
• aims, objectives and deliverables
• capturing the costs and benefits of Research
Data Management (Jisc) in HEIs
• Research Data Shared Service
• benefit
• outputs
• limitations

Notes de l'éditeur
In this task we will review and reflect on past work to identify the benefits of a shared LMS, and assess the range of available evidence on the benefits of shared LMS. Literature that we plan to analyse include:
Internal 2012 report: WHELF Sharing a Library Management System – Research, Scoping, and Specification Study (pre-cursor to feasibility study)
Business case developed from the feasibility study
Road-map and timelines for implementation
Individual institutions business cases
This will help us to understand: the situation pre-shared LMS and how that was expected to change following the implementation of the shared LMS; which benefits had been identified and additional information around the realisation of these benefits (e.g. channels of realisation, potential metrics for measuring).
