Assessing ERM and Discovery Practices with the ODI Conformance Checklist

Presenter: Jeffrey Mortimore

The ODI Conformance Checklist for Libraries provides a practical tool for assessing and enhancing ERM and discovery-related practices in technical services. Employed as an assessment tool, the ODI Checklist supports self-assessment, vendor assessment, benchmarking, and continuous improvement pursuant to improved resource discovery and access. During this session, presenters will introduce the ODI Conformance Checklist as an internal assessment tool and highlight ways that we are using the Checklist to identify and prioritize improvements to workflows and practices. This session will be of interest to any technical services personnel looking to improve assessment efforts and improve how they communicate findings.
