The ACRL Academic Library Trends & Statistics Survey

Each year thousands of academic libraries complete ACRL’s Trends and Statistics Survey. Libraries across the country use the survey for benchmarking, understanding trends, and advocating for better resources. In this session, members of the survey editorial board will present selected results from the 2019 survey, with maybe a peek at 2020 results, by looking at how the data can be used with the Standards for Libraries in Higher Education. Presenters will also share responses to common questions from those who complete the survey, discuss recent changes to the survey, and demonstrate how librarians can access and use the data.
