Abstract(s)
This chapter presents a project developed by the Portuguese School Libraries Network aimed at establishing a Self-Evaluation Model for School Libraries. The context from which the Self-Evaluation Model originated is described indepth, with a particular focus on the different stages of implementation and the incorporation of feedback obtained from schools. Additionally, the chapter introduces some of the solutions found to tackle issues related to the scale and scope of the intervention: the Self-Evaluation Model was applied at national
level, across several levels of education, and it entailed the use of e-learning for country-wide staff training purposes. The objectives of each phase of implementation are outlined and discussed with reference to resources, procedures and outcomes generated. The chapter closes with a reflection on the
impact of the Self-Evaluation Model on future action and on its added value to international practice.
