Library Usage Stats

Page history last edited by Stephanie Wotring 3 years, 3 months ago

Thank you to everyone who responded to my intial email!

Below is a summary of the results:

Run a monthly circulation report from your circulation system
Have students sign in
Make a spreadsheet using these item 1) circulation stats 2) daily usage -numbers taken from 3 M Security system each morning and afternoon when we close 3) number of classes visiting per month ( for book checkout, computer use, research) recorded on the public folders calendar
When teachers schedule - find out # of students in each class
give an in-house usage number for any materials students use or browse during the day. If three classes use books I have pulled for research, I scan them three times.
I also count the number of classes that schedule and come to my library. If a class cancels, I remove it from my Outlook calendar and do not count it.
I also have a sign-in sheet for individual students that come to the library for books, or computer use during the day.
