(Light refreshments available from 1.45pm)The JISC Library Data Impact Project proved a statistically significant correlation between library usage and student attainment. Two universities in the region, De Montfort and Lincoln, participated in the project and will present on their approaches to the collection of library activity data and the analysis and dissemination of the results. There will also be an opportunity for participants to discuss the practicalities and value of gathering and using such data, within our libraries and the wider institution.
