READ Scale and LibStats

[JudyD]

Washburn University Libraries is now using LibStats and we are
exploring ways to incorporate the 6-point READ Scale into our data
gathering. Is anyone else already doing this?

[Danielle Theiss-White]

This is something that K-State would like to do, but we haven't
started. We were thinking that we could add an additional field for
the READ scale into Libstats at the top.

That's what Washburn is considering also, but we haven't found a way to
add another field. We also considered having the reference staff put the
scale ranking after the question or answer.

KUMC will soon be using the READ scale.  We are using SharePoint (a Microsoft product liscenced for the entire campus campus) instead of Libstats since PHP is not supported.  Right now we are developing the entry form.  We hope to by the beginning of the fall semester.
