     Hello!   Dear Collegues, I am writing from a  Mexican University.    I
wonder if any of you can help me  finding the Lancaster study that shows
the impact of the library (number of  volumes) in the student performance.
This study shows a graphic with a  direct relationship between number of
volumens and student performance.

Any help will be useful. Thanks!

I tried searching LIBRARY LITERATURE (database choice in Webspirs) for
"Lancaster" and "student" and "volumes" but it came up with 0 hits.
Various combinations of the above also resulted in 0 hits. A search just
for the word "volumes" produced 76 hits. "Lancaster and library" produced
9 hits, but none of those matched what you seem to want.   When I just
searched for "Lancaster" it brought up 245 hits (too many to browse).

Without additional information I can't do much more with this.  I suggest
that you try searching Library Literature yourself if you have access to
it from your library.
