Statewide training sessions led by MOREnet staff or other projects sponsored by the Missouri State Library (MOSL) continue to have pre- and post-test evaluations and/or follow-up surveys to determine the effectiveness of the training. LSTA grant recipients continue to recognize the importance of Outcome Based Evaluation (OBE) measures in assessing overall project impact. All of our grant applications require evaluation planning and implementation for LSTA-funded projects. This year we focused on improving OBE for collection development grants awarded to schools, including providing sample surveys for grant recipients to adapt for use in their projects. Many of the school library staff noted in their final reports how behaviors changed, skills improved or collections were strengthened as a result of the projects implemented. Q2: Briefly describe your state's results in meeting its identified OBE goal(s) this reporting period. The Missouri State Library (MOSL) is pleased with the results of requiring Outcome Based Evaluation http://spr.imls.gov/PrintStateSummary.asp?summaryid=762[5/27/2015 12:06:28 PM] Missouri State Program Report Summary for Fiscal Year 2013 (OBE) measurements for its LSTA-funded grants. Libraries have a sense of greater accountability in implementing and evaluating the results of the projects. Most grant recipients have improved in reporting project outcomes. MOSL and workshop participants can articulate how trainings have sufficiently and significantly increased knowledge and skills in attendees; how technology projects have improved efficiency and effectiveness of local technology networks to improve customer service; how summer library program grants are instrumental in avoiding summer learning loss; and how school collection development projects have strengthened and expanded both quality and availability of resources to help meet the literacy needs of people of all ages.

Partnership? Exemplary? OBE-Related? Project Purpose: This project digitized and made available 5,251 pages pertaining to World War 1 from collections throughout Missouri. Materials selected represented core themes: women’s support efforts, the Influenza outbreak, and experiences of Missouri troops in combat. This project made these primary source materials available to historians, students and others interested in World War 1, including availability to a national and international audience through the Missouri Digital Heritage website. Project Activities/Methods: http://spr.imls.gov/PrintStateSummary.asp?summaryid=762[5/27/2015 12:06:28 PM] Missouri State Program Report Summary for Fiscal Year 2013 Scanner options investigated with the Epson Expression Scanner selected for purchase. Springfield-Greene County Library partnered with the Missouri History Museum in St. Louis, Missouri; the National World War 1 Museum in Kansas City, Missouri; the Museum of Osteopathic Medicine in Kirksville, Missouri; and the State Historical Society of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri to implement the project. Site visits were made to institutions holding collections pertinent to the Over There: Missouri and the Great War themes with items identified and prioritized for digitization. In addition to the primary partners, the following institutions also provided collections for digitization: the American Legion Barlog-Kuszaj-Zero Post 422, National Archives and Records Administration-National Personnel Records Center, Richmond Heights Historical Society, Soldiers Memorial Military Museum, St. Louis Mercantile Library, and St. Louis Public Library in St. Louis, Missouri; the Bates County Museum in Butler, Missouri; the Deutschheim State Historic Site, Gasconade County Historical Society Archives and Records Center, Gasconade County Historical Society Museum, and Historic Hermann Museum in Hermann, Missouri; the Downing House Museum, Scotland County Genealogical Society, Scotland County Historical Society, and Scotland County Public Library in Memphis, Missouri; Excelsior Springs Museum and Archives in Excelsior Springs; Jasper County Records Center and Memorial Hall in Carthage, Missouri; Kirkwood Historical Society in Kirkwood, Missouri; Palmyra Gardner House in Palmyra, Missouri; Ripley County Historical Society and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3485 in Doniphan, Missouri; and the Webster Groves Historical Society in Webster Groves, Missouri. Project staff was able to identify connections between the collections held in the different institutions, providing a more complete story of specific individuals in World War 1. Items were digitized, had metadata and transcripts created, and reviewed for quality control. Items were uploaded into Missouri Digital Heritage. The promotional campaign utilized many different types of media including traditional press releases, posters, flyers, website, social media, and regional publications and newsletters. Conference and local presentations included: Dakota History Conference, Hannibal Free Public Library, Missouri Association for Museums and Archives and the Missouri Humanities Council Conference,
