AUBURN
All figures are as of 09/30/2007.
Includes the Library of Architecture, Design and Construction, and the Cary Veterinary Medical Library.
4 While this data appears to show a significant increase for Auburn, our 2005 06 data was inadvertently under reported for serial
titles. The data for the current year is similar to data reported for 2004 05 and for previous years. The greatest discrepancy is for
4b (serials titles received but not purchased). Auburn reported 18,563 for this category in 2004-2005, but only 8,622 in 2005-2006.
Approximately 46% of the serials had ISSNs.
12 Increase this year is due to the addition of over 104,000 titles in the Naxos Music Library.
22 Increase in electronic purchases reflects the number of journals moved from paper subscriptions to online only subscriptions.
28 The main library has been operating on a 24 x 5 schedule during this year, which accounts for the increased hours.

titles, #3 Business Plans Handbook with 11 titles, and #4 Encyclopaedia of Judaica with 1 title.

counted elsewhere. Expenditures for e monographs do not include access fees.

description in the instructions. The serials totals reported here were estimated from counts determined at the end of 2007 and will

campus.
