[Purpose/significance] Since the results and the impact of international librarian exchange programs have gone largely un-measured, this article intends to propose a measurement tool with referential significance to assess their impact, effectiveness and value.[Method/process] Firstly, this article is based on the case study of Sichuan University Libraries-Arizona State University Libraries Exchange Program. Secondly, four criteria are established through referring to D. Bachner and U. Zeutschel's work on international educational youth exchange. Lastly, a measurement tool with qualitative and quantitative outcomes is proposed after adding a five point Likert scale to each of the four criteria and combining them with the open questions which require detailed elaboration.[Result/conclusion] Though the assessment, this article measures and evaluates the librarian exchange program in all aspects, confirms its impact and value to the librarian, the institution and the system, finds out the pros and cons in program strategy and implementation, and proposes advice to promote the exchange program's further development.
