Implementing ISO 9001 in a library

Answer:

When it comes to implementing ISO 9001, the steps are the same regardless of the type of business the organization conducts. First step is to determine to what extent your organization is already compliant with requirements of the standard by performing the GAP analysis that will show what are the gaps to be bridged in order to achieve full compliance with the standard. Here you can find our free ISO 9001:2015 Gap Analysis Tool https://advisera.com/9001academy/iso-9001-gap-analysis-tool/

Once you determine what needs to be done to achieve full compliance with the standard, you can develop a project plan where you will define what needs to be, who will do it and what are the deadlines. Here you can download our free Project Plan for ISO 9001 implementation https://info.advisera.com/9001academy/free-download/project-plan-for-iso-9001-implementation-ms-word

Then, you can start implementing processes and documents and creating the Quality Management System. And once the implementation is over, you can conduct internal audit and management review to determine whether your system is compliant with the standard and if not, you can initiate corrective actions to achieve full compliance.
