WATERLOO
All figures are as of 04/30/2009.
Library branches included: Includes the Musagetes Architecture Library, Optometry Learning Resource Centre, and the
TriUniversity Storage Annex (University of Waterloo materials only).
1.a Volumes held revised to 2,294,020. Adjusted to include one-time bulk-load of 7,605 e-book records.

purchase of new monographs from Oct 2008 to April 2009. The combination of these two factors explains the decrease in
monograph purchases.
5.b.ii Count extracted from SFX database.
16-26 Expenditures as reported in Canadian dollars: (16a) $872,578 (16b) $5,570,593 (16c) $95,774 (16d) $373,849 (16) $6,912,794
(17) $58,454 (18a) $2,726,943 (18b) $3,761,353 (18c) $710,299 (18) $7,198,595 (20) $1,487,544 (21) $15,657,387 (22) $163,458 (23)
$4,312,820 (24a) $15,536 (24b) $0 (25) $366,043 (26) $65,253.

until April 2009.

WAYNE STATE
All figures are as of 09/30/2009.
Library branches included: The Reuther Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs, the Shiffman Medical Library, and the Neef
Law Library. The Medical and Law library statistics cannot be disaggregated from the main statistics because the Medical
and Law collections are an integral part of the Main Library.
10 This is an estimated measurement. In the past year, the manuscript and archives collection has been reevaluated. We now
estimate that the size of the collection in 2007-2008 was 69,000 linear feet.
