30-31 The number of presentations dropped in 2010-2011 we expect to see an increase in 2011-2012.

the reference online portal systematically.

(24a) $0 (24b) $0 (25) $0 (26) $46,673.
LOUISIANA STATE
Library branches included: Health, Law, Main.
1.a Volumes held June 30, 2010 revised to 4,136,383. This figure includes 7,495 e-books added to the library collections from the
following: Springer -6,279 Elsevier -529 Cabi -300 Berg Fashion Library -59 Referex -202 Emerald -127 YBP (ebrary, Wiley,
Sage) -255.
1.b This figure increased due to less of a budget cut and more staff time devoted to processing uncataloged collections.
2 LSU Libraries unable to report unique titles. The increase in this figure is attributed to significant additions to the catalog (i.e.
e-books, GPO titles, etc.)
3 This figure includes 7,496 e-books added to the library collection from the following: Springer -6,279 Elsevier -529 Cabi -300
Berg Fashion Library -59 Referex -202 Emerald -127 YBP (ebrary, Wiley and Sage) -255.
5, 5.a.i Our electronic resources had a significant increase in the number of titles included.
5, 5.a.ii LSU Libraries has no current method in place to identify these titles. However, we are working toward this goal by adding check
in records for all print serials received.
5, 5.b.i LSU Libraries is unable to count these titles as most are purchased by LOUIS (the Louisiana Library Network) for consortia
libraries as a whole.
5, 5.b.ii This number is lower than the 2009-2010 figure due to fewer freely accessible e-journals being available to our library.
10 The change from past reporting is apparently caused by a typographical error made some years ago that has been perpetuated,
as new holdings were added each year to the previous year's figure. The current report is based on a physical inspection of the
stacks.
12 Main library count is unavailable. Figure reflects Law and Health Sciences counts.
16.a, 25 Increase is due to increased funds.
LOUISVILLE
Library branches included: Health Sciences, Art Library, Music Library.
Library branches NOT included: Law Library.
5.b.ii We really do not have a valid number to report free/open access titles, the freely accessible titles overlap to some unknown extent
with paid titles. Databases like the various ProQuests contain some open access materials for user convenience, but we still pay
for them. Some journals that we buy from the publishers become open access after an embargo period. The parts would add up to
more than the whole.
10 Figure for manuscripts for 2009-2010 revised to 21,069,430.
16.b Includes electronic serials: $5,946,646.
16.c Excludes electronic serials.
