MSU-IIT Institute Library Statistics

The Library Usage Log Once you enter the one of the libraries of MSU-IIT, our library staff reminds you to register your ID Number at the Online Library Usage Log. 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.

College of Education Renovation Report

On May 15, 2017, the College of Education Library opens its door to library patrons with its new arrangement. The circulation desk is now strategically situated near the entrance right in front of the online user registration system, Library Usage Log. Before, the circulation desk was situated in the center of the library right after the reading area. The problem that this arrangement imposes is that students who come inside the library most of the time disregard the Library Usage Log. This results in inaccurate library statistics of library usage every day which will then reflect to the satellite library’s report on library users.   CED Library Reading Area before the renovation Also, students are not properly monitored in the old arrangement.

This problem also adds inconvenience to the library staff and the scheduled cleaners because most students leave their ...

Last week, big changes were made inside the College of Education Library!  Newly installed windows near CED Lib's Circulation Section In a span of one week, the old windows of the CED Library were replaced with white sliding windows with bronze-tinted glass. The newly installed windows improved the whole lighting quality inside the library and helped in keeping the whole satellite library maintain a vibe that is just right for readers and library patrons.  Reading Area At CED Library While the old windows were being replaced, the CED Library interior arrangement was also changed to improve the monitoring of the library (e.g. User statistics and book charging/discharging) and library materials accessibility.

Plus, the space provided for the reading area is a lot wider than that of the old arrangement.  The On...
