Editor's Notes
The largest portion of the use of the OCUL II resources is for purposes of coursework (56.83%) with sponsored research representing an important second highest category of use (16.75%) but less compared to 2004-05 when sponsored research represented 26% of uses. This difference could be a function of the fact that OCUL I focused on Scholars Portal, whereas OCUL II cast a much wider net.
