摘要
威斯康星大学拉克罗斯分校(University of Wisconsin-La Crosse)在2021财年开始的两个月里,面临着与疫情相关的图书馆藏书预算减少20%的问题,这意味着需要对图书馆的期刊订阅做出痛苦的决定。为了完成这项任务,图书馆员调查了教职员工和教学人员,列出了一份对教学和研究至关重要的期刊清单。图书馆员分析了调查中列出的图书的订阅状态、访问信息和使用统计数据。他们的发现强调了从用户那里收集定性数据来为收集决策提供信息的重要性,以及过分依赖使用统计数据作为期刊价值标志的危险。
Abstract When University of Wisconsin–La Crosse was faced with a pandemic-related 20% reduction to the library’s collections budget two months into the 2021 fiscal year, it meant painful decisions needed to be made about the library’s journal subscriptions. To accomplish this task, librarians surveyed faculty and instructional staff to generate a list of journals essential to teaching and research. Librarians analyzed the subscription status, access information, and usage statistics of the titles listed on the survey. Their findings reinforced the importance of gathering qualitative data from users to inform collection decisions, and the danger in relying too heavily on usage statistics as a marker of a journal’s value.
