Librarians gather data on multiple aspects of their work. Much of the data collection revolves around the library's resources, but what may be passed over during this data collection is information on how librarians are expending their time and effort. A group of librarians from a community hospital system designed a Microsoft Access database to collect such data and has been recording librarians' efforts for more than three years. The librarians use the data in annual reports and can track trends to evaluate service priorities and maximize effective use of the librarians' time.
图书馆员收集有关其工作多个方面的数据。大部分数据收集工作围绕图书馆资源展开，但在这个数据收集过程中可能被忽略的是有关图书馆员如何花费时间和精力的信息。一家社区医院系统的一群图书馆员设计了一个微软Access数据库来收集此类数据，并且已经记录图书馆员的工作情况三年多了。图书馆员在年度报告中使用这些数据，并可以跟踪趋势以评估服务重点，最大限度地有效利用图书馆员的时间。
