Extract of Statistics for Major External Reports

(e.g. ARL, ACRL, IPEDS)

Description: Each campus will be asked to list statistical data required to complete major external reports. The list should include a specification of the data elements needed and indicate where the data is stored in the records. For example, if a volume count is needed, please tell us how a volume is defined in the external report. A statistical report of this sort can only extract data that is stored somewhere in the record. Time frame: Spring 2008 (firm schedule TBD)

Developed for: All campuses.
