01"Non-returnable" refers to materials that the supplier/lending library does not expect to have returned. Examples of non-returnable include photocopies or facsimiles, fiche-to-fiche copies, print copies from microfilm, electronic full-text documents, and gratis print copies of unpublished reports and/or departmental working papers. 2Documents delivered "from commercial services" refers to all documents from commercial document delivery services received by the library’s users. This includes all transactions that the library pays for, even if library staff is not involved in the transaction. NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule.

1"Volumes" includes a single physical unit of any printed, typewritten, handwritten, mimeographed, or processed work, distinguished from other units by a separate binding, encasement, portfolio, or other clear distinction, which has been cataloged, classified, and made ready for use, and which is typically the unit used to charge circulation transactions. Include print photographs, duplicates and bound volumes of periodicals. For purposes of this questionnaire, unclassified bound serials arranged in alphabetical order are considered classified. Exclude microfilms, maps, nonprint materials, and uncataloged items. Include Government document volumes that are accessible through the library's catalogs regardless of whether they are separately shelved. "Classified" includes documents arranged by Superintendent of Documents, CODOC, or similar numbers. "Cataloged" includes documents for which records are provided by the library or downloaded from other sources into the library's card or online catalogs. NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule.

1 Full-time equivalent (FTE) staff is calculated by dividing the total number of hours for all part-time positions by the number of hours the library defines as a full-time position.NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule.

2.31"Total circulation" includes general circulation and reserve circulation. 2 Full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment is calculated by adding one-third of part-time enrollment to full-time enrollment. 3"General circulation" is the number of items lent from the general collection and includes both initial transactions and renewals. 4"Reserve circulation transactions" is the number of items lent from reserve collection and includes both initial transactions and renewals. NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule. A percentile is a measure that tells us what percent of the total frequency scored at or below that measure. A percentile rank is the percentage of scores that fall at or below a given score. Twenty-five percent of institutions fall into each percentile grouping. All institutions in the 25th percentile were at or below the number given in the table for the 25th percentile and all institutions in the 50th percentile were above the 50th percentile number. For example, all institutions within the 25th percentile had 1.7 or fewer general circulation transactions per FTE student. For each type of circulation, the percentiles were calculated separately. The libraries comprising the 25th percentile for general circulation are not necessarily the same for the reserve circulation.SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Academic Libraries Survey (ALS), 2010 and Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), Fall Enrollment Survey, 2009-2010.

For example, all institutions within the 25th percentile had 9.9 or fewer volumes held per FTE student. For each type of volume of books, the percentiles were calculated separately. The libraries comprising the 25th percentile for volume of books held are not necessarily the same for the volume of books added.

NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule. A percentile is a measure that tells us what percent of the total frequency scored at or below that measure. A percentile rank is the percentage of scores that fall at or below a given score. Twenty-five percent of institutions fall into each percentile grouping. All institutions in the 25th percentile were at or below the number given in the table for the lower quartile and all institutions in the 75th percentile were above the 75th percentile number. For example, all institutions within the 25th percentile had 2.9 or fewer total staff per 1,000 FTE students.

1Full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment is calculated by adding one-third of part-time enrollment to full-time enrollment. 2"Information resources" includes books, serial backfiles, current serial subscriptions, document delivery/interlibrary loan, preservation, and other expenditures for information resources. 3 While "level" and "Carnegie classification" are similar, there is not complete overlap in the two classifications. "Level" refers to the highest level of any degree offered by the institution. The "Carnegie classification" is based on criteria such as institutional mission and research funding in addition to highest level of degree awarded. The Carnegie classification was developed by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and published in A Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, 2005 Edition.NOTE: The 2010 ALS population included postsecondary institutions that provide all of the following: total library expenditures that exceed $10,000; an organized collection of printed or other materials, or a combination thereof; a staff trained to provide and interpret such materials as required to meet the informational, cultural, recreational, or educational needs of the clientele; an established schedule in which services of the staff are available to the clientele; and the physical facilities necessary to support such a collection, staff, and schedule. The number of doctoral, master's, and bachelor's level institutions does not sum to the total number of 4-year and above institutions because there are 4-year and above institutions that grant "other" degrees and are thus not included in the breakdown. Detail may not sum to totals due to rounding. SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Academic Libraries Survey (ALS), 2010.
