In this paper we propose a weighted production indicator to evaluate libraries activities. This indicator is composed by the various kinds of processes and services done in the libraries. In order to aggregate these processes and services, we used the weights obtained from a librarian value judgements about their relative importance. To transform qualitative judgements into quantitative ones, we used the Macbteh multicriteria method. The proposed approach, after discussions with other decison-makers, can be used as a comparative evaluation score, particularly when libraries are subjected to a central administration.
