The categories for ADULT/YA and CHILDREN are derived from the location code in the item records. Codes ending with an "a" are included in the ADULT totals; codes ending with a "j" are included in the CHILDREN totals. If your library does not catalog YA materials under the "a" location, then you will have to adjust these totals. College library reports retain the original location code and are not broken down by Adult/Children.
For periodical holdings, the system is only able to count issues. Since the ARIS and IPEDS forms request that you report bibliographic volumes and not the number of issues, the number was not included.
This corresponds to section E of the ARIS form.

The following chart shows the number of bibliographic records that each college library is attached to. This corresponds with the IPEDS request for the number of titles owned.
Number of Bib Records--Colleges
NOTE: checkouts to patrons with a PTYPE of "Special Patron", "ILL Card", and "NOBLE ILL Center" were subtracted from the ADULT/YA totals. These checkouts were for internal use only and should not be counted as a checkout on the ARIS form.
These statistics were generated from a Cross Tab report with the rows set to ITYPE and the columns set to item Location. The item location was used to determine whether material was adult/YA or childrens. If your library does not catalog YA materials under the "a" location, then you will have to adjust these totals. For libraries with multiple branches, campuses, or bookmobiles, the totals were combined.

The Excel spreadsheet used to create these reports also shows circs broken down by specific item locations.
NOTE: Last year NOBLE recommended that libraries use an ITYPE to represent borrowed material rather than an item scat. For these reports, item scats were checked for each library, and if the count by item scat (3000-3999) was greater than the count by ITYPE, then the scat figures were used instead of the ITYPE figures. These libraries should review their ILL procedures and make sure accurate ITYPES are added to incoming material. Scats are no longer needed for ILL items in order to produce Interlibrary Loan and Net Lender statistics.
Non-Owned Items Circulated - This report shows ILL's among NOBLE libraries. If you want to print this, you need the Excel file.
The following reports include complete ILL activity including the statistics from the Non-Owned report (above).

Checkouts to special ILL cards were already subtracted from the ILL totals provided for Section G above. Enter 0 on the ARIS form for this section.
Non-Resident borrowing statistics are taken from the Circ Activity Report (sorted by RECIPROCAL) of the Innovative system. Reciprocal borrowing is determined by the code in the RECIPROCAL field of the patron's record.
This corresponds to section J of the ARIS form.

Number of Registered Borrowers
Libraries that host their websites on NOBLE's server can find year-end totals on the Webtrends page.
The Net Lender form for the MBLC requires that you look at your ILL statistics by region. The ILL statistics above were reworked to show loans to and borrows from region members.
NOTE: Last year NOBLE recommended that libraries use an ITYPE to represent the region that the borrowed material came from rather than an item scat. For libraries that had statistics in the non-specific ITYPE "ILL Material", item scats (3000-3999) were checked and the scat figures were used instead of the ITYPE figures. These libraries should review their ILL procedures and make sure accurate ITYPES are added to incoming material.
Non-Owned Items Circulated - This report shows ILL's among NOBLE libraries and has been reformatted to show region affiliation.
