UNCG Data
• Almost 12,000
READ reference
transactions
logged so far
• How does it give
perspective to

• How can we
apply it in the
future?

Conclusion
Individual Insight:
 How interns/librarians
differ in their treatment
of reference
interactions
 Provides awareness of
skill levels--where are
we proficient? What do
we need to improve
on?
Departmental Insight:
 Deeper understanding
of reference
interactions
 Better comprehension
of how/when we get
reference questions
(staffing, budgeting,
etc.)
 Testament to capability
of interns
Any
Questions?
