About:

Support your staff and strengthen your library with Incident & Issue Tracking

Academic libraries experience their fair share of recurring issues and an unpredictable number of more serious incidents that are essential to report. Incident & Issue Tracking takes the guesswork out of reporting and ensures everyone stays in the loop until issues are resolved.

This new tool can be utilized to meet both internal and external communication needs by supporting accountability and keeping everyone informed. Compiled data can then be used in budget requests, strategic planning, annual reports, and more. Join us for a behind-the-scenes tour of Incident & Issue Tracking and see how this platform can help you support your library, your staff, and your campus. 

This 45-minute webinar will cover:

  • Instructions for customizing intake forms for different use cases
  • How operational transparency creates an accountability pipeline
  • Best practices for advertising and encouraging visitors to report issues
  • Tips for turning incident data into actionable requests for funding, resources, or more staffing
  • Time for Q&A
