Best Answer

Calculating the number of library users can be simple or complex, depending on the type of library you are looking at. There are different parameters that need to be taken into consideration when making this calculation, including:

  • The number of registered borrowers
  • The number of visits to the library (which includes those who are registered borrowers and those who aren't).
  • The number of (unique) visits to the library website (which includes the use of online catalogue, databases, and other online resources provided by the site).

The actual calculation depends on what parameters are being considered and how the raw data is collected (e.g. random sampling vs. collecting a complete long-term set of data).

What is a paperless library?

A paperless library refers to a digital library (or e-library), where users can borrow library materials electronically. For example: instead of having printed books on shelves, a paperless library collection would have ebooks available for users to download and read. Items are still borrowed, so access to a borrowed ebook will still expire after a certain period of time (e.g. after three weeks after being signed out).
