Updated Version of ROI Calculator Now Available

The OLC recently updated its Return on Investment (ROI) Calculator with 2015 price points and costs. You can start entering your 2015 data now by downloading the ROI calculator below. This tool was created to help libraries quantify the benefits provided to their communities in a simple and understandable fashion.

Within the spreadsheet are four tabs (at the bottom):
  1. Instructions on how to complete the 2015 ROI template;
  2. The actual 2015 ROI template;
  3. An explanation of what the ROI figures mean and how to utilize them; and
  4. Notes on the pricing and cost assumptions.

 

Please note: Before entering your library’s data into the yellow-shaded cells, it is best to print out a copy of the “Instructions” tab separately and gather the data to be entered.
