Usage
Setting filters:
- To see what titles your own library’s patrons have borrowed over the year, select all copy owning libraries and only your own library for patron home library.
- To see what titles of yours patrons system wide have borrowed, select only your own library for copy owning library and all patron home libraries.
- To compare titles from year to year, enter previous years in the date filter.
Working with the output:
- This report returns all titles that had at least one checkout – it can be VERY big
- Sort the Excel file by Circ Count – largest to smallest
- Use the display column “Stat Cat Value” to filter the output by Adult Fiction, Adult Media, Adult Nonfiction, Juvenile Fiction, Juvenile Media, Juvenile Nonfiction, Juvenile Other, or Other (or records with no stat cats) for more targeted lists
- This counts circulation of items attached to title records – when there are multiple formats, e.g. print, large print, and audiobooks, of the same title, each format is counted separately. The format is not indicated.
- Some title records may be duplicated if different statistical categories were applied items linked to the title – e.g. an Adult Fiction book is accidentally coded as Juvenile Fiction. These can be found by sorting the list by the “Title TCN” column.
