Abstract

The article discusses the upward evaluation of supervisors at the Arizona Health Sciences Library, exploring the benefits of employee feedback to their supervisors. It describes the annual performance appraisal process at the University of Arizona, the interdepartmental relationship between the medical library and the university's human resource department, and the employee satisfaction regarding their supervisor's skills in leadership, judgment, and communication. Other subjects under discussion include employee concerns about confidentiality, the use of web-based surveys to conduct upward evaluations, and the relationships between those in middle management and the executive directors.
