- Library Effectiveness Study. Pritchard, Alan And Others College Libraries Higher Education Library Services Library Surveys Statistical Surveys Use Studies User Satisfaction (Information) An investigation was made into the levels of user demands made upon the four libraries of the City of London Polytechnic, the degree of user satisfaction, and the kinds of services provided. An overall measure of library effectiveness was derived, and a series of 30 detailed observations covered: 1) basic statistics on the usage of the various libraries by different groups; 2) library use statistics which can be used for long-range purposes; and 3) basic statistics on the usage of library materials. It was concluded that such data are useful for planning and policy making, but that much additional research needs to be carried out. (PB)
