  1. Day 6 of the EBLIP-Gloss FOLIO Course: “Ask” A SPICE Tutorial Revised August 2009

  2. On Day 5 of the EBLIP-Gloss Course… • …we asked you to identify a “burning question” about your library and information services. • Today we will be looking at how you “ask” that question.

  3. “To be able to ask a question clearly is two-thirds of the way to getting it answered” (John Ruskin)

  4. “Fuzzy questions tend to lead to fuzzy answers” (Oxman & Guyatt 1988) Therefore…

  5. Your “burning question” should be… • Focused • Relevant • Answerable

  6. You may already be familiar with the PICO/PIOC framework • POPULATION • INTERVENTION (sometimes EXPOSURE) • COMPARISON • OUTCOME …commonly used for questions in evidence-based practice (terminology drawn from epidemiology).

  7. The alternative for EBLIP is… • The SPICE framework • Developed specifically for library and information questions.

  8. SPICE • SETTING – in which context are you addressing the question? • PERSPECTIVE – who are the users/potential users of the service? • INTERVENTION – what is being done to them/for them? • COMPARISON – what are your alternatives? • EVALUATION – how will you measure whether the intervention has succeeded?

  9. Our “burning” question • What evidence is there that the Information Clinics are providing the same level of tuition or better than the traditional one-to-one format?

  10. Our SPICE Example • SETTING = ScHARR Information Resources • PERSPECTIVE = Masters Students • INTERVENTION = Information Clinics • COMPARISON = One-to-one tutorials • EVALUATION = Ability to perform unassisted a predetermined list of searching tasks

  11. Now your turn… • Recall your “burning question from Day 5. • What is the SETTING for your burning question? • Click for a hint! • Hint:in which context are you addressing the question?

  12. Now your turn… • What is the PERSPECTIVE for your burning question? • Click for a hint! • Hint:who are the users/potential users/stakeholders of the service?

  13. Now your turn… • What is the INTERVENTION for your burning question? • Click for a hint! • Hint:what is being done to/for the users/potential users/stakeholders?

  14. Now your turn… • What is the COMPARISON for your burning question? • Click for a hint! • Hint:what are your alternatives?

  15. And finally… • What will be the EVALUATION for your burning question? • Click for a hint! • Hint:how will you measure whether the intervention has succeeded? • Please note: we will be covering “evaluation” in more detail on Day 10 of the EBLIP-Gloss course!

  16. You should now have a question that is… • …focused, relevant and answerable!
