We are upgrading to a new circulation module, NOTIS 6.4.  We have been
collecting statistics on use for collection development purposes,
such as:

- use per title
- % of books in call number range that circulate
- breakdown on use by fund codes
- titles that never circulate
- patron status

However, we were wondering what statistics other Collection Development
Librarians find useful.  We hope to incorporate better and wider report
generation in the new module.  Thanks in advance for any information,
Brian
