ACRL Metrics

ACRL Metrics are tools used by academic libraries to measure their performance and impact. They assess how well libraries support teaching, learning, research, and community engagement. These metrics help librarians understand their strengths, identify areas for improvement, and demonstrate their value to stakeholders. By tracking data such as resource usage, collaboration efforts, and outreach activities, libraries can make informed decisions, justify funding, and enhance services to better serve students, faculty, and researchers.
