The purpose of information systems post-evaluation ought to be to improve the use of systems. The

paper proposes the use of narratives as a tool in post-evaluations. The potential in narratives is that they can

convey meanings, interpretations, and knowledge about the system, which may potentially lead to action. The

paper offer three main suggestions: 1) evaluations should form the basis for action; 2) narratives makes

evaluation more relevant; and 3) post-evaluations should be done with the aim of improving use. Narratives

should be viewed as a complement to traditional evaluation methods and as a way of making evaluation more

formative and thereby moving away from the more common summative perception of evaluation. The conclusion

of the paper is that narratives can advance IS evaluation and provide a richer evaluation picture by conveying

meanings not included in traditional evaluations.
