Abstract

Presents findings of the external evaluation of the Leading Modern Public Libraries (LMPL) national leadership development programme, undertaken by Information Management Associates (IMA) with the Centre for the Public Library and Information in Society (CPLIS), University of Sheffield, February 2005-June 2006. The LMPL programme is a key component of the action plan for the Department for Culture Media & Sport (DCMS) Framework for the Future strategy for public libraries in England and Wales. Evaluation methods included a literature review, document analysis, participant observation, critical incident interviews, and pre- and post-program questionnaires. The program was judged successful, with reservations about participant selection.
