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. 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.

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.
