  4. Dimensions of LibQUAL+

  5. Service Gaps Service Adequacy Gap The difference between the perceived and minimum scores; an indicator of the extent to which the minimum expectations of the users are being met. • Service Superiority Gap • The difference between the • desired and perceived scores; an indicator of the extent to which the desired expectations of the users are being exceeded.

  6. Mean Scores by Dimension & Group

  7. = 2010 Desired Level Mean Scores By Dimension & Group 2006 Mean Scores By Dimension & Group 2006

  8. Service Adequacy / Superiority GapsService Adequacy and Superiority Gaps indicate the distance between perceived levels and desired levels of service.Perceived – Minimum = Adequacy Gap ~ Perceived – Desired = Superiority Gap

  9. Core Questions Summary For Undergraduates Undergraduates The question with the lowest service adequacy gap was: IC-2 “A library web site enabling me to locate information on my own.” > 2010 – 0.50(Bigger is Better!) > 2006 – 0.30

  10. Core Questions Summary For Graduates Graduates Three questions had negative service adequacy gaps: IC-2 “A library web site enabling me to locate information on my own.” -0.28 LP-2 “Quiet space for individual study.” -0.03 LP-4 “A gateway for study, learning or research.” -0.19 Two questions had positive superiority gaps: AS-2 “Giving users individual attention.” 0.18 LP-5 “Community space for group learning & study.” 0.77
