ACRL 2001 Academic Library Trends and Statistics
Center for Survey Research, University of Virginia, compiler
The complete data set from ACRL's comprehensive statistics-gathering project encompassing all academic libraries. Data from 1,603 academic libraries in all Carnegie classifications is included. The core set of data consists of five major categories:

  • Collections: which includes monographic volumes, serials and microforms, etc.;
  • Expenditures: which includes library materials, electronic serials, computer hardware and software, salaries and wages, etc.;
  • Personnel and Public Services: which includes size of staff, reference transactions, circulations, ILL, etc.;
  • Ph.D.s granted, Faculty and Enrollment Statistics: which includes Ph.D.s granted, number of faculty, undergraduate and graduate enrollment, etc., and
  • Supplementary Statistics: which includes expenditures for computer files, electronic serials, bibliographic utilities, networks, and consortia.
Also included in 2001 is summary data on the reporting institutions' activities in implementing programs to teach information literacy skills. The data is reported in summary form for current program status and four key areas of program organization: library involvement, collaboration, administration/resources, and assessment.

The statistics are available in three volumes: one which includes institutions in Carnegie classification Associate of Arts degree granting, one with those in the combined Carnegie classifications of Master’s Colleges and Universities, and Baccalaureate Colleges, and one with Research/Doctoral-granting Institutions. (May also be purchased as a three-volume set.)

The 2001 data is also available online. Go to http://acrl.telusys.net/trendstat/2001/index.html for more information.
