Deciding what data to collect, best practices for reporting, and attempting to standardize data collection\/report processes and procedures between departments can seem impossible. Commonly, librarians find themselves addressing the key issues of:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Who are our stakeholders and what do they want to know?<\/li>\n<li class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Do librarians and stakeholders speak the same language?<\/li>\n<li class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Do we all share an understanding of key success metrics, annual goals, and the long term vision for the library?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Library UX Chicago is delighted to invite you to attend this workshop exploring effective storytelling using data featuring\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/weebly.us17.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=82768efef9844fc3d62867e53&amp;id=eee10d10f4&amp;e=8a4a224765\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dr. Kate McDowell<\/a>.
