Statistics & Input-Output Measures for Colorado Academic Libraries, 1992.

This edition of a statistical report on Colorado's academic libraries begins with a section of tables organized by sector (public or private) and board (governing board or agency) that includes library-by-library statistics as well as summary figures for boards and sectors. Following these tables are three sections of charts that illustrate how Colorado's university, college, and community college libraries rank on selected statistics. In contrast to previous reports strict sector and board comparisons were dropped for these charts to enable more reasonable comparisons. Data elements are those of the Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System (IPEDS) to enable comparisons with other states when the figures are available, including: (1) library staff; (2) staff expenditures; (3) collection expenditures; (4) miscellaneous operating expenditures; (5) library collections; (6) annual library services; and (7) library services per typical week. The charts illustrating statistics and input-output measures are grouped for Colorado universities, colleges, and community colleges. (SLD)
