Generating a Patron Statistics Report

The Patron Statistics Report lets you examine the circulation statistics for your

patrons grouped by patron type and location or user fields. Use this report to

measure the impact of library reading programs on circulation or to monitor the

circulation habits of each patron type using your library.

Note:

Patron types are created and assigned by the library staff and are used to

identify specific groups of patrons. For information on creating and using

patron types, see page 69.

The Summary report displays

statistics associated with the

selected groups. The Detailed

report displays statistics for

individual patrons in the selected

groups.

After selecting your report options,

click Print.

Select the field(s) you would like

to group by. Options include

Patron Type, user fields, and

location fields.
Limits report to specific groups

of patrons.
Starts a new page after

each group.

Note:

If you want to calculate the patron statistics as of a particular date, you can

use the Set Report Date feature to override the current system date. For

more information, see Changing the date used to run reports," page 494.
