Book Requests Filled Promptly
A total of 90.7 per cent of all books requested at the reserve book desk in the undergraduate reading room were delivered at the time of the request. This was one of the findings of an efficiency study made March 10 through Sunday in Watson Library.
Of the remaining 9.3 per cent, 5.5 per cent could not be delivered because all copies of the books had been checked out and 3.1 per cent were not on reserve. Only .5 per cent of the books could not be delivered because the book could not be located and .2 per cent could not be delivered for other reasons.
The survey was made by counting all call slips for reserve books, with renewals counting in the total circulation count. A total of 2,256 books were requested during this period.
Robert L. Quinsey, chief of the reader services, said another study will be conducted in the spring to determine the time required to get a book.
