This document discusses developing a matrix and using self-reported scoring to measure librarian engagement on campus. It describes the campus population at Ohio University which has 23,000 students and awards over 8,000 degrees per year. It then outlines a campus relationship matrix developed to capture the work of librarians and measure their progress in three levels - emergent, generative, and productive. Examples of productive relationships include co-authored grants and publications. Results from the first year of implementation showed 26 emergent relationships, 20 generative relationships, and 15 productive relationships. The goal for the upcoming year is to continue discussions around engagement levels and examples.

- 12. Campus Relationship Matrix This matrix is neither comprehensive nor static, but simply an attempt to capture what work we believe should be valued and to assist us in measuring our progress. Each of the work examples has been placed in one of three levels. While it would be more accurate to place these examples on a spectrum or continuum from passive to collaborative, for the purpose of organizational change measurement, these three levels have been defined as:
- 13. Relationship/Engagement Levels Emergent = basic/foundational w/ some interaction Generative = building a trust relationship; beyond basic, but not fully immersed in collaborative work Productive = collaborative partnership, time consuming/difficult, work that truly highlights how librarians contribute our unique expertise in support of teaching, learning, and research.
- 16. Products of Productive Relationships • Co-designed research project assignment that is used across all majors of the business college • Authored library section of successful, national grant • Elected office-holder of disciplinary scholarly society • Earned a PhD • Co-developed online multimedia textbook • Co-created and supervised a for-credit internship program • Co-developed and will co-teach new course
- 17. Results ● 26 Emergent Relationships ● 20 Generative Relationships ● 15 Productive Relationships
