crln-9266	Walter, Scott	C&RL Spotlight	2015-02-01	2	.pdf	application/pdf	1340	45	41	Looking back over 15 years during which concerns over “the growing influence of corporate aims and val- ues” in higher education have only increased, Nicholson concludes that the trends identified by Quinn continue to shape academic library practice and that his critique of library leader- ship “largely foreshadows the current state of academic libraries,” including their focus on accountability; return-on-investment; learning analytics; and the standards, guidelines, out- comes, and performance indicators that “[make] libraries increasingly predictable.” In “The McDonaldization of Academic Libraries and the Values of Transformational Change,” Karen Nicholson (University of Guelph) argues that the idea of “McDonaldiza- tion,” as applied to academic libraries by Brian Quinn in 2000, continues to shape the language of library research and practice.	cache/crln-9266.pdf	txt/crln-9266.txt
