FY2007 Automated Resource Sharing Networks Report 

The Automated Resources Sharing Networks Report provides a snapshot statistical view of the nine automated networks in Massachusetts. Each network provides a shared integrated library system and additional services to its member libraries. In FY2007, 374 libraries were members of a network.

The Report includes a membership list and map (which have been broken out into separate pdf files for downloading), operating income and expenditures, capital expenditures, E-rate income, staffing levels, number of titles, items and resource sharing activity, and miscellaneous services. Five year comparisons of selected data are also provided.

Surveys and Instructions and definitions are sent each year to the automated resource sharing networks which serve libraries in Massachusetts and the data is compiled into a print report.

Data reports are in PDF format and require the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
