[Michlib-l] Library usage

[Leanne Milliman]

Basically we just make a mark every time someone walks in the door, with separate categories for computer use and wifi. A previous library I worked in tracked reference, technology, and directional.

Happy Friday everyone!

I’m interesting in learning what type of statistical information libraries collect at their circulation/reference desks.   Do you have daily tallies of reference questions, direction questions, computer questions?  What other type of information do you collection?  (Phone calls? Item renewals….. Etc……)  Examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much !!
