Why measure digital content use?
• More than 60% of the library materials expenditures
in major research libraries is spent on electronic resources
• This proportion is even higher for smaller college and university libraries
• The amount is yet higher considering consortial and state-wide and nation-wide deals

Consortial Licensing
• Canadian Research Knowledge Network– National site licensing agency– Major publishers (e.g. Elsevier)
• OCUL-IR– Standing committee of OCUL– Large and small publishers
• Knowledge Ontario– Multi-sector

Scholars Portal
• Shared technology infrastructure hosted at University of Toronto
• Shared services (e.g ILL, SFX, VR, RefWorks)• Locally loaded content (aggregation and
archiving)– Journals – Books– Microdata– GIS

OCUL Scholars Portal
• In 2004 the digital content was primarily e-journals (8.2 million articles from 7,219 full text electronic journals)
• In 2010 Scholars Portal has 23 million journal articles from over 11,200 full text electronic journals
• Extensive growth has occurred in other formats: 350,000 e-books, statistical and geospatial data collections
• SFX, the open-URL resolver that connects users to this digital content, is an integral component of the 2010 implementation of MINES for Libraries® since it acts as the delivery mechanism by which the patron encounters the survey

What is MINES?• Action research– Historically rooted in indirect cost studies– Set of recommendations for research design– Set of recommendations for web survey
presentation– Set of recommendations for information
architecture in libraries– Plan for continual assessment of networked
electronic resources– An opportunity to benchmark across libraries

Goals for MINES for Libraries at OCUL 2010-11• demonstrate the value of the library• secure resources as needed• understand use of resources within the library, on
campus outside the library, and off campus• understand use of resources across disciplines and
user groups• understand why people are using electronic resources• Track the trajectory of the use of the resources since
2004-05

OCUL MINES 2004 vs 2010
OCUL I : 2004• Randomly selected 2 hour periods each month for a year• Mandatory
OCUL II: 2010• SFX as delivery mechanism• Systematic sampling (every nth)• Mandatory and optional versions• Additional question: contact pool

Practical Implications/Value
• What are the implications of running the survey in session mode vs link-resolver?
• How does the use of consortial products compare to that individually-licensed content?
• What conclusions can be drawn about the efficacy of surveying users via an open-URL resolver?
• How will MINES fit into the overall assessment program for OCUL?
• How useful is the contextual information from MINES in understanding user workflows?
• Are there any lessons learned regarding discoverability?

methods– informing collection development decisions, – understanding the impact of open access, etc.– ……
