General Instructions:

Definitions of the statistical categories used in this questionnaire are based on American National Standard for Library and Information Sciences and Related Publishing Practices-Library Statistics Z39.7-1995. The questionnaire assumes a fiscal year from July 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007. Please do not use decimals unless instructed otherwise. All figures should be rounded to the nearest whole number. Non-CJK items in this survey refer to materials in non-CJK languages. All currencies should be converted to US dollars. Please cooperate with all branch libraries and report one combined library statistics for each institution. An exception is given for law libraries. If an appropriate entry is zero or none, use 0. Please use the automatic sum functions that are supplied by the application. Leave all Subtotals and Totals BLANK.
  

CEAL Statistics Database (online forms): http://www.lib.ku.edu/ceal/

 
  • Libraries that have participated in the statistical survey since 1999 have your library name already in the pull-down list. Choose your library name from the list, and enter your own password from last year. You can change your password once you get into your library form page, and scroll down to the bottom where the Administrative Form is located. Library survey coordinators should contact Fung-yin Kuo Simpson (fyks@uiuc.edu) to obtain old password information.
  • Libraries that wish to establish new accounts in order to participate in CEAL annual statistics should contact Vickie Doll (vdoll@ku.edu).
  • Consult Calvin Hsu (ch8xy@virginia.edu) for all other questions concerning forms and data input.

Entry Form (listed in sequence of tables published in JEAL)

Note: The application will calculate all Subtotals (bold fields) automatically if you leave them BLANK (zero "0" is not a blank value). When you change a previous input, you need to BLANK out the previous total or Subtotal for the application to re-calculate a new total. Although you can supply your own totals, it is best to use the automatic calculation feature for data integrity.

Canadian currency needs to be converted into U.S. Dollars.

Total Volume Holdings Form

Previous monographs and bound serials holdings held by the libraries will be supplied by the CEAL database. (New 2005- )

The same datasets can be found at http://www.lib.ku.edu/ceal/Stat/20052006/cealstat05_06.pdf (Table 1). New libraries and libraries that didn't participate in year 2005-2006, will need to fill out the data according to your collection information.

(Include duplicates and bound volumes of periodicals. For purposes of this questionnaire, unclassified bound serials arranged in alphabetical order are considered cataloged. Exclude microforms, maps, non print materials, and un-cataloged items.)

See the ANSI Z39.7-1995 definition for volume as follows:

Volume. A single physical unit of any printed, typewritten, handwritten, mimeographed, or processed work, distinguished from other units by a separate binding, encasement, portfolio, or other clear distinction, which has been cataloged, classified, and made ready for use, and which is typically the unit used to charge circulation transactions. Either a serial volume is bound, or it comprises the serial issues that would be bound together if the library bound all serials.

Volumes added:
Include only volumes cataloged, classified, and made ready for use.
