Importance of the Library Usage Log

Quantitative and qualitative data about library services, library use and library users are essential for revealing and confirming the outstanding value that libraries provide.

As the informative value of such statistics depends on their comprehensiveness and speed, the participation of all libraries in the country will be necessary. Library statistics are necessary for the effective management of libraries, but they are still more important for promoting library services to the different types of stakeholders: policy makers and funders, library managers and staff, actual and potential users, the media and the general public. Where statistics are aimed at policy makers, managers and funders, they are essential for decisions on levels of service and future strategic planning. (IFLA Library Statistics Manifesto)

The MSU-IIT Institute Library Statistics is also a useful tool in making an informed decision for the whole library system. It is an integral part in improving the library collection (printed and non-print materials), improve the physical structure of the each satellite library, reorganizing its personnel, improve the equipment, furniture and fixtures for the library patrons and even improve its services.
