LAVAL
All figures are as of 04/30/2011.
Data from the Law and Health Sciences Library are included in the figures reported. 2010-2011 fiscal year is 11 months, ending
April 30th.
16-26 Expenditures as reported in Canadian dollars: (16a) $2,996,661 (16b) $7,518,595 (16c) $210,715 (16d) $221,077 (16) $10,947,048 (17)

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.
MCGILL
All figures are as of 04/30/2011.
Library branches included: Education, Islamic Studies, Life Sciences, Osler Library of the History of Science, Schulich Library
of Science &Engineering, Music Library, Rare Books, Geographic Information Centre, Birks Religious Studies, Macdonald
Agricultural &Environmental Sciences, Law, Humanities &Social Sciences (Incl. Art &Architecture), Mathematics &Statistics.
Data from the Health Sciences Library are also included in the figures reported.
1.a Volumes held revised to 4,350,661. Total adjusted for additional 58,337 e-books that were batch loaded.

MARYLAND, cont.
16.d Includes new memberships plus increased cost of renewals.
20 Includes one-time major project costs plus expenditure of new library student technology fee.
21 One-time expenditure of $645,000 to outfit Terrapin Learning Commons.
23 Dedicated student library technology fee provided funds for increased expenditures on electronic resources.
26 Result of shift to less expensive, more efficient consortial, operating and delivery systems.
28 Counted discrete service points within libraries rather than just libraries themselves.
30 Scaling down instructional efforts. However, increases in marketing/outreach produced higher attendance.
MASSACHUSETTS
Library branches included: Science and Engineering Library, Image Collection Library.
1.a Volumes held June 30, 2010 revised to 3,777,263.
1.b.i The increase in volumes added gross for 2010-2011 is part of the ebb and flow of one-time purchases for the University of
Massachusetts given our budgetary allocations and acquisition decisions in 2010-2011.
2 This is an estimate of the number of 245 fields in our ILS as of the end of 2010-2011.
5.b We are currently unable to easily distinguish between subcategories of serials received but not purchased.
10 We received the first installment of the Mark H. McCormack collection (Sports Management) during 2010-2011, which resulted in
larger than usual growth.
14 Implementation of streaming video for course reserves resulted in increased acquisition of material in DVD format.
37 Excludes 35 Ed. D., 25 Doctor of Nursing Practice, and 4 Audiology doctorates.
MIT
Library branches included: All libraries at MIT are included in the ARL Statistics.
1.a Volumes held June 30, 2010 revised to 3,343,147 by adding 223,990 to 2009-2010 figure. (This revision reflects improved
methodology for counting catalogued monographic e-resources reported in 2009-2010).
1.b Again, reflects improved methodology for counting catalogued monographic e-resources. Volumes added gross for Jun 30, 2010,
was increased as well, so that our comparisons for each year overall are valid.
3 14,204 print 595 e-books individually purchased 77,051 e-books purchased in packages. In 2009-2010, we purchased several large
packages, which contributed to the higher overall count compared to the 2010-2011 figure.
5.a.ii We have intentionally been moving from print subscriptions to electronic-only.
5.b.ii Increase in number of freely accessible serials titles due to activation of more free targets in SFX.
5.b.iii We have intentionally reduced the number of print and other formats that we accept into our collection.
16.a In addition to some budget reductions, funds were reallocated within the materials budget to produce this significant overall
drop in monograph expenditures.
16.c Backfile purchases have been a priority in recent years and even more so in 2010-2011, explaining the jump of 50.5% from 2009-
2010.
16.d This expense category was reduced due to a drop in postage costs related to print materials.
17 As a budget cutting measure, contract binding was reduced substantially in 2010-2011.
18, 18.a-18.c Includes fringe benefits.
18.b Cuts in the staffing budget resulted in the drop in expense in this category. Includes fringe benefits.
22 Some extraordinary one-time e-resource purchases were made in 2009-2010, which accounts for this substantial difference.
24.a In previous years, certain other related costs in the range of $10-$20,000 were included in this figure. For 2010-2011, we have
included only OCLC costs.
25 Figure for 2010-2011 reflects a substantial increase because it includes new expenses for video platform infrastructure.
Additionally, this was the beginning of a 5-year purchase cycle for server hardware.
27 Positions were cut in both professional and support staff categories in 2010-2011.
