A Library Essential: Needs Assessment
Abstract
The use of needs assessment is considered as a critical tool for library organisation and administration. A basic model is examined together with a realistic rationale for implementation. A three‐stage process for needs assessment is described in detail from planning to organising, and concluding with scheduling. Major criteria are suggested which should relate to direct outcomes.
