[Darci Hanning]

Please pardon the duplicate posting if you're already subscribed to Project Outcome newsletters - this is a shortened version of their latest newsletter to highlight some important updates about the project and a webinar that may be of interest. Thanks!

Launching New System!
You spoke, we listened. Project Outcome is launching a new and improved system starting MAY 1! See FAQ<https://www.projectoutcome.org/pages/2> for more information.

What does this mean for participating libraries?

  *   Libraries are discouraged from scheduling any new surveys before May 1
  *   Libraries with active surveys must enter all data into the current survey portal by midnight Central Time on Sunday, April 30
  *   Libraries with active surveys and programs running beyond April 30 should change their survey end dates to April 30

What's coming in the new system?

  *   More customized survey design, including adding program names, logos, helper text and more
  *   Easier survey creation, copying, editing, entry and management
  *   View real-time results
  *   Build custom reports at any time
  *   Add up to three survey questions (from a pre-determined list or write your own open-ended questions)


Measure & Build a Better Summer Library Program
April 27, 1-2 pm Central

Summer reading programs are on the horizon! How will you measure the success of your summer reading and summer learning programs? Project Outcome provides a set of tools to help you measure the outcomes of your summer programs, which can be used to make program improvements, justify funding requests, and strengthen community partnerships.

This free webinar will cover good practices for administering Project Outcome surveys for summer reading programs. Learn what other libraries have done to successfully gather outcome data about summer learning and why standardized summer program outcomes are so important from the state library's perspective.
