OPAC Statistics

NCC can provide monthly statistics on OPAC usage. The statistical report contains data for all districts automated with LNOCA/NCC.

OPAC StatisticsQuestions / Discussion: 1. Are there any concerns with NCC emailing

the full statistical report, which will contain data for all districts?

2. Should the report be sent just to the LLIS or to all library staff?

Sidebar: Monthly Circulation StatisticsNCC can also email monthly circulation statistics. Since these reports can be generated by library staff, is this needed? It’s ‘all districts or nothing’ on this one.
