DEFINITION OF TERMS USED IN THE CUL ANNUAL STATISTICAL REPORT

Added. Added physical units or titles are those units or titles that have been cataloged according to Anglo-American Cataloging Rules or for which other inventory records have been made available to users (e.g. minimal or provisional catalog records, accession records, or records in a database file). Circulation. The act of lending an item from the library s collection for use generally (although not always) outside the library. This activity includes charging, either manually or electronically, and also renewals, each of which is reported as a circulation transaction. See materials use. Instruction sessions: Information contacts in which a staff member, or a person invited by a staff member, provides information intended for a number of persons and planned in advance. Information service to groups may be either bibliographic instruction or library use presentations, or it may be cultural, recreational, or educational presentations. Presentations both on and off the library premises are included as long as they are sponsored by the library. Does not include meetings sponsored by other groups using library meeting rooms. Interlibrary loan. A transaction in which library material, or a copy of material, is made available by one library to another upon request. It includes both lending and borrowing. The libraries involved in interlibrary loan are not under the same administration or on the same campus. Manuscripts: Works written by hand or typed, including manuscript books, dissertations, letters, speeches, etc., legal papers, including printed forms completed in manuscript, and collections of such manuscripts. Includes archival material. Materials use: Includes circulation and reserve transactions. In-library materials use is a count of material consulted by users in the library (not loaned), and reshelved by the staff. 3' Microforms: Photographic reproductions of textual, tabular, or graphic material reduced in size so that they can be used only with magnification. The two mam types of microforms are microreproductions on transparent material, including roll microfilm, aperture cards, microfiche and reproductions on opaque material. Non-book materials: Materials that are displayed by visual projection or magnification or through sound reproduction, or both, including sound recordings, motion pictures and video recordings, and graphic materials. Also included are maps and computer files. Printed 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. This is typically the unit used to charge circulation transactions. Includes monographs and bound volumes of serials. Reference transaction: An informational contact that involves the knowledge, use, recommendations, interpretation, or instruction in the use of one or more information sources by a member of the library staff. The term includes information and referral service. Information sources include: 1) printed and non-printed materials; 2) machine-readable databases (including computer-assisted instruction); 3) the library's own catalogs and other holdings records; 4) other libraries and institutions througn communication or referral; and 5) persons both inside and outside the library. When a staff member utilizes information gained from previous use of information sources to answer a question, report as a reference transaction even if the source is not consulted again during this transaction. Directional transactions must N O T be counted as reference transactions.

Page iii


D efin itio n s (continued):

Serial: A publication in any medium issued in successive parts bearing numerical or chronological designations and intended to be continued indefinitely. Includes periodicals; newspapers; annuals (reports, yearbooks, etc.); the journals, memoirs, proceedings, transactions, etc. of societies; and numbered monographic series. Sound recordings: Material on which sounds (only) are stored (recorded) and that can be reproduced (played back) mechanically or electronically, or both. This includes audiocassettes, audiocartridges, audioreels, talking books, compact disks, and other sound recordings. Subtracted: Physical units that are withdrawn from CUL, or transferred from one CUL library to another. Title: The designation of a separate bibliographic whole, whether issued in one or several volumes, reels, discs, slides, or other parts. A book or serial title may be distinguished from other such titles by its unique International Standard Book or Serial Number. The term applies equally to print, audiovisual, and other library materials. For unpublished works, it is the term used to designate a manuscript collection or an archival record series. When vertical files materials are counted, a file folder is considered a title. Withdrawn: Withdrawn physical units or titles are those that have been removed from library collections and for which catalog records have been removed or marked to indicate that the units are no longer in the collections.
