Last post, I told you that I was off to run some circulation reports and get some updated numbers. I ran ALOT of reports. No. Seriously. ALOT! Think of a number. Now make it bigger. I was a data monster. I spent HOURS with numbers and spreadsheets and reports and it made me feel very official.
But now I am in a quandary. A perplexing position indeed. I am not known for my ability to keep a secret. However, I am pretty good at deception when it involves practical jokes. Good news makes me giddy and I have lots of good news. But, I don't want to give it all away before our staff development and our presentation at Common Ground.
So, for tonight I will just give a peek of some wonderfulness.
Overall Circulations for the same period (November 2013 to April 2014 vs. November 2014 to April 2015) have increased by 827 or 8.3%. I consider that an accomplishment and success especially when factoring in that over 1000 titles were also weeded from the collection during that same time period. The goal of this genrefication project was increased circulation and we are still accomplishing that in our library.
And that is all I can say! Honestly. No matter how much you beg. But I will say, that is the LEAST impressive of the numbers that I saw in my data.
