What does the Library Services Complete Self-Assessment Guide include?

The guide provides approximately 60 digital files - a combination of XLSX spreadsheets and PDF documents - organised into sections such as Getting Started, Self-Assessment, Requirements, Models, Processes, Performance, Governance, Sustainment and Advanced Topics. It also includes Platinum Tier centrepiece assets like a master playbook, a 90-day adoption roadmap, an implementation template, an anti-pattern catalogue, an outcomes dashboard and an incident-response runbook, all delivered by email within 24 business hours.
