“…Koufogiannakis grouped sources of evidence into either "hard" or "soft," where "hard" included sources that could be easily shared, were "written, concrete information" that was generally accepted as evidence, and "soft" included sources that focused on experience or knowledge or others that allowed a "real-life connection" to context (2012, p. 11). This broad interpretation of "evidence" was consistent with findings reported by Gillespie et al (2017), which included observations, feedback and statistics recognised as evidence by practitioners. Experiences of evidence based practice have been found to not always be a straight-forward or linear process, but "holistic" in being evidence based LIS professionals (Gillespie, 2014;Koufogiannakis, 2013;Koufogiannakis, 2015;Luo, 2018;Miller, Partridge, Bruce, Yates, & Howlett, 2017).…”
