This study asks not whether anyone used what was already owned, but instead whether the…

As federal government information is increasingly migrating to online formats, libraries are providing links to this content via URLs or persistent URLs (PURLs) in their online public access catalogs (OPACs). Clickthrough statistics that accumulated as users visited links to online content in the University of Denver's library OPAC were gathered…

Libraries with a Future: How Are Academic Library Usage and Green Demands Changing Building Designs?
