The document discusses an OCLC data analysis conducted for SCELC libraries, revealing a substantial amount of book holdings and unique collections among members. It highlights the potential for resource sharing, collaboration, and shared print preservation through data insights. Future steps include obtaining direct data from members and developing a self-service tool for real-time data access.
SCELC Colloquium Shared Print Analysis
- 1. What OCLC data analysis reveals about SCELC libraries SCELC Colloquium John McDonald CIO, Claremont University Consortium March 6, 2013
- 2. SCELC’s Need for DATA • Nascent resource sharing program (CAMINO) What can I get out of this if I join? • Interest in shared print preservation program What will I be obligated to keep if I join? • Some have interest in closer collaborative collection development What can I stop buying or what else can I buy?
- 3. OCLC Data Analysis • SCELC officially requested provision of print book holdings from OCLC for a portion of its members • 56 SCELC schools requested (50% of membership) • Simple Data provided: By OCLC Number Holding Libraries by Symbol
- 4. OCLC Data Analysis • 2.2 Million Books (or 2,190,464 to be exact) • 5.5 Million Holdings (or 5,558,921 to be exact)
- 5. Data looks a little like this…

- 9. So what? What will the data tell us…
- 10. Who makes a good resource sharing partner? Who makes a good shared print partner? Who do is best to collaborate with on collections in the future? What traits can influence a Library to join a program or start a partnership?

- 19. Potential for this data • Data has proven to be valuable in modeling potential for resource sharing, print preservation, and collaboration • Additional areas of analysis: ▫ Overlap and uniqueness by publication year and subject area (LC Call Number) ▫ Paired and multiple modeled scenarios • OCLC Data is just a snapshot in time (and already outdated) • OCLC is hard to work with and can be expensive
- 20. Potential Next Steps • Need data from members directly ▫ Could include circulation ▫ Simple data extraction should be easy and can be supplemented by OCLC API • Find appropriate permanent home for database • Develop self-service tool with (close to) real time data • Determine if new OCLC Collection Analysis tool will provide the same or similar information
