Planning a University Library assessment?

If you are conducting or have completed a library assessment, please report it using our Assessment Reporting Form.

Please also consult with the Assessment Librarian, Laura Wimberley.

Institutional Review Board (IRB)

If you are interested in sharing the assessment data that you gather on your participants outside of CSUN, then you must apply for IRB approval before you begin your project. Check out CSUN's Research and Sponsored Projects website for more information on how to apply for IRB approval.
