Further, it partners with students to learn about and eliminate student pain points.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-298 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/scenario.png\" alt=\"scenario\" width=\"256\" height=\"228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/scenario.png 256w, https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/scenario-150x134.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Journey mapping plots a process or service to produce a visual representation of a library transaction &#8212; from the point at which the student accesses a service to its final resolution. Service scenarios are identified, and maps are produced that reflect the journey from the student\u2019s point of view. The map is then used to develop an \u201cideal\u201d journey and to explore changes that would improve the service experience.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the links to read our full report, and view the twelve journeys we analyzed during this pilot project.\u00a0 We will continue to use this methodology to assess library services and improve the student experience of using the Consortium Library.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/JourneyMappingReport-CL.pdf\">JourneyMappingReport-CL<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Reserve-a-group-study-room.pdf\">Reserve a group study room<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Library-Course-Guide.pdf\">Library Course Guide<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Chat-Query.pdf\">Chat Query<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Find-3-Articles.pdf\">Find 3 Articles<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Locate-Book.pdf\">Locate Book<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Charge-Device.pdf\">Charge Device<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Locate-Article.pdf\">Locate Article<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Quiet-Study-Area.pdf\">Quiet Study Area<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Check-out-DVD.pdf\">Check out DVD<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Reserve.pdf\">Reserve<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Laptop.pdf\">Laptop<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/files\/2017\/03\/Scan.pdf\">Scan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Library Assessment Team recently conducted a Journey Mapping exercise.\u00a0 This project &#8212; based on the work of librarians at University of Montana &#8212; was designed to enhance the student experience of using the library by assessing our services from their point of view.\u00a0 Journey Mapping is a methodology that analyzes the point at which [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":247,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/247"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=278"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":301,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/278\/revisions\/301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/consortiumlibrary.org\/blogs\/assessment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
