- Survey of Costs in Technical Processing and Interlibrary Loan. Summary. Brown, Maryann Kevin McHugh, Anita L. Cataloging Costs Data Analysis Interlibrary Loans Libraries Library Acquisition Library Networks Library Surveys Serials This report, a part of the Cost and Funding Studies supportive of the development and implementation of western interstate bibliographic network capabilities, summarizes the results of cost data collected in 76 western libraries--public, academic and State. The focus of these studies was upon technical services and interlibrary loan. Analysis included results of a cost survey, a survey of interlibrary loan traffic, twelve in-depth case studies and an examination of three western bibliographic centers. Based upon a stratified sample of 100 libraries, these studies document present cost incurred for cataloging, acquisitions, serials processing and interlibrary loan across a wide range of libraries. A related publications list, sample characteristics, libraries included in the surveys, activities sheets and task definitions, and a glossary of terms are appended. (Author/KP)
