Circulation Transactions Comparison, FY 2023

This report uses Circulation Stat 3 to compare the total number of loans made to your home patrons, to loans made to users from another I-Share library.
This report is better used for general peer comparison than for answering statistical surveys; to answer statistical surveys, each library should use their individual Circ Stat 3 report to calculate totals.

• Notes:
  • If your institution uses the ILLINET linked user records to record OCLC/other ILL system transactions in Alma, those loans are not counted in the data below, but they ARE counted in the data for AFN Stats 1 & 2. Because of this exclusion/inclusion, the totals for you library (and the overall totals of loans) in these reports may not match.
  • Similarly, if your institution has any local user records assigned the I-Share user group (either intentionally or accidentally), those loans will be included as an I-Share loan in this report, and also in AFN Stats 1 & 2.
