Table 3 is similar to Table 2, but reports data only on US libraries. Table 4 shows trend data for Canadian libraries and compares them to the changes in the Canadian Consumer Price Index (Consumer Price Index for Canada, all-items, not seasonally adjusted). Tables 2, 3, and 4 include law and medical library staff in ARL university libraries. Tables 3 and 4 indicate that the purchasing power of professionals in the United States did not keep pace with inflation, while the purchasing power of their Canadian counterparts surpassed inflation. US salaries were almost on par with inflation in 2014–2015. US CPI increased by 2% (see Table 3),5 and the median salary for US ARL university libraries in 2014–2015 increased by 1.8% to $70,000 (see Table 3). Canadian salaries (reported in Canadian dollars) surpassed inflation: the Canadian CPI increased 2.1%, while median salaries in Canadian university libraries increased by 3.2% to $92,000 (Canadian dollars, see Table 4).6 The median beginning salary (BPS) for university ARL librarians remained $48,000 in 2014–2015 (see Table 2). Table 6 shows that the median for beginning salaries in nonuniversity libraries increased to $51,888 in 2014–2015, and the overall median salary for nonuniversity librarians increased to $95,329. Readers are reminded that these data reflect only salaries, and that there are other compensation issues which may have influenced the pattern of salaries in various institutions. In addition, a highly standardized structure for capturing data has been used, which may portray results in a way that cannot be fully representative of a local situation. 5 CPI data retrieved from the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index-All Urban Consumers (US All items, 1982-84=100 -CUUR0000SA0) available online at http://www.bls.gov/data/. 6 The source for Canadian CPI data is Table 5: The Consumer Price Index for Canada (All-Items, Not Seasonally Adjusted, Historical Data) published in The Daily, a Statistics Canada publication, available online at http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/62-001-x/62- 001-x2015002-eng.htm.
