| مستخلص: |
The article presents a study which examines the holdings and usage of books reviewed in "Choice: Current Reviews for Academic Libraries," books designated by Choice as Outstanding Academic Titles, and the general collections of the Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries. Choice is an important tool used by many academic libraries to identify monographs to add to their collections. The study uses the Spectra Dimension collection analysis tool to examine very large sets of usage data from eight libraries in the Alliance over a seven-year period. |
