Assessing the Undergraduates' Use of the University Library

Gorham Lane
1966 College and Research Libraries  
An academic library deserves to be appraised in terms of the use made of it by undergraduates. In an effort to apply these terms four studies were conducted in a specific library to determine what students did there and to analyze their long-term withdrawal of books. Details are given . on the purposes behind student visits to libraries, and statistics are enumerated on student withdrawals by class and by sex. The library appears to be a greater potential educational force than is being realized.
