Abstrakt:

Libraries collect data about their users and use of collections for many reasons. Amount of use is an implicit measure of the value of a library’s electronic collection. Surveys of users give a detailed picture of users or user groups and provide explicit measures of value and outcomes of reading and library collections. Log data and surveys together can be used to show patterns of use by academic staff and students and the value and purpose of reading scholarly journal articles.
