Library Statistics

Our annual report includes basic library statistics such as how many books the library owns, how many were borrowed, how many online journal articles were downloaded, etc. It includes a brief discussion of challenges and changes. See 2023-24 2022-23, 2021-22, 2020-21, 2019-20, 2018-19, 2017-18, 2016-17, 2015-16, 2014-15, 2013-14, 2012-13, 2011-12, 2010-11. In reports before 2023-24, the circulation count included renewals . But, following IPEDS and ATS, we now exclude those. In reports written before 2023-24, the physical collection count was based on volumes or other physical pieces. But following IPEDS and ATS, we now count based on titles, not volumes. Therefore, you will see some contradictions if you compare an old report with a recent report.
