Survey Prep: Manage system users and reporting library branches

→ Step 2: Monitor Data Entry

→ Step 3: Review and Submit Data

→ Step 4: Survey Complete!

In the ARL Statistics workflow, there are two major roles:

Primary Contact: an institution’s designated point person for a particular survey (ARL Statistics, Preservation Statistics or Supplementary Statistics). This person is exclusively responsible for the completion of Survey prep and steps 1, 3, and 4 of the submittal process outlined above.

Users: staff who may be involved in the data submittal process or simply have viewing rights only. Generally, these individuals may be involved only in step 2.

Manage Branches: Review the library branches listed for use in submitting your

data. Follow the directions on the page to make any additions or changes. Note that a branch’s ‘type’ does not automatically determine its placement within the statistics publications. You will explicitly indicate the inclusion of branch data for publication purposes

In step three, you are presented with a page which aggregates the data entered in step two into its designated publication. For EACH tab, please do the following:

1) Review your response for each question and compare with the previous year’s total. In cases where there has been a significant percentage of change, be sure you have provided a footnote to justify the variation. If you find data that needs adjusting, visit the individual branch survey forms via the left navigation.

2) For multiple choice questions, select the radio button of the choice you would like to display in the publication. If only one branch has been aggregated in the tab, this selection will be automatically made for you based on what you entered in the data form.

3) At the end of each response row is a checkbox. Check this box only if you wish for the data displayed for this question to appear as ‘NA/UA’ in the publication. Otherwise, leave the checkbox blank.

When you have completed your review of each tab, be sure to click the ‘Update Inclusions’ button at the bottom of the page to save your selections [This must be done for each tab separately].

Calculated fields – These are identified by the grayed out appearance as well as your inability to enter data. These fields are calculated based on entries in other boxes according to the formula indicated in parentheses. If you have selected NA/UA for any part of a mathematical formula rather than entering data, you must enter the total for that function manually.

NA/UA boxes - If your institution cannot provide data for any particular item, check the NA/UA box next to that item. NA/UA should be used when data are not available for a specific item, or (for non-university libraries) when a given question does not apply to the institution. Checking NA/UA on a given item overrides any response that has been entered; numeric data given for that item will be erased.

Info Icons - Definitions are provided for survey items. Those definitions are identified by an information icon next to the data entry area. Simply click on the icon to open a new window containing the additional information.

Footnote icons - Footnotes provide you with the opportunity to explain discrepancies in your data, document local practices that differ from the survey definitions, and add additional information about figures. Respondents are encouraged to be clear and concise. Click on the footnotes icon next to each item to enter additional details and information about your survey data.

Other form features:

‘Save’ button - To save your entries, be sure to click the ‘Save’ buttons located throughout the form. Clicking a ‘Save’ button will save all entries in the form regardless of location. If you attempt to leave the page without saving your entries, a dialogue box will appear to remind you of this. Note any data you entered and did not save will NOT be available next time you login. A notice will appear on the top of the form in red to inform you that you saved data successfully.

‘Ready for Review’ button –located at the bottom of each form, this button should only be clicked when data entry for a branch is complete. Clicking this button alerts your institution’s primary contact that the data is ready for review. However, you are able to return to this form to edit data until its final submission to ARL by your institution’s primary contact.
