* The decrease in the use of Reference Services is related to the increased usage of Electronic Resources.

** Due to scheduling conflicts, the number of Teen/Senior Computer Training sessions was reduced in 2007.

*** As part of the Circulation System maintenance, patron records that have not been used in three years are removed from the system. The last purge was done at the end of 2003, just before we migrated to a new Circulation System. Now that the Library has been on this system for three years, the purge will be done annually.
