Abstract

This paper describes a statistical method developed by the Faculty Personnel Committee of the University of Colorado at Boulder Libraries to identify and correct internal salary inequities among its faculty. Initially implemented in the 1995–1996 fiscal year for forty-seven librarians, the process measures an individual’s scholarly productivity over his or her entire academic career, accounts for years of experience, and adjusts for his or her most recent annual evaluation rating. The individual’s score is then charted against current salary, and a trend line is generated based on the method of least squares. The individual’s distance from the trend line indicates possible salary inequity.
