Library Reference Analytics 5.0 Collection Guide

Conditions for Change

Reference analytics fields will be added if:

  • new use cases require the collection of new data;
  • old use cases are updated (such as program review) and require the collection of new data.

Reference analytics fields will be removed if:

  • there are no use cases that involve the collection of data from those fields;
  • other tools collect the data in a better way.

All analytics collected via Reference Analytics will be stopped if:

  • there are no longer any viable use cases for collecting reference data;
  • other tools collect the same data in a better way;
  • it becomes too costly (in terms of time or money) to collect data reliably.
