We all have a story to tell about the work we do and part of telling it is using data to help us understand where all of that time went!

Scheduling reports with Alma Analytics has been transformative for how Central Access Services at University of Illinois – Urbana-Champaign (UIU) collects data so they can track and observe trends and celebrate what they’ve accomplished. Janelle Sander will be sharing what kinds of Alma transactions UIU collects from Analytics and how the reports were constructed.

This session will be recorded and posted to the CARLI website.

Please note: This session is intended to discuss reports that are in use at CARLI member libraries; it is not intended to be an Alma Analytics training session.
Any questions about the purpose and use of the report can be discussed live during the session; but any questions on the HOW to run the report(s) in Alma Analytics or how to adapt them for your own institution should be sent to .

These monthly, informal, agenda-free meetings provide a platform for you to talk with other directors about topics on your radar and/or updates from your library. CARLI usually provides updates as well. CARLI rotates the meetings (day of the week, time of day) to accommodate busy calendars. We do our best to avoid conferences, holidays, and other conflicts. Please let me know about times/days that never work for you. If you cannot attend, you may send a representative. We look forward to seeing you all for conversation and updates!

Check your CARLI Governing Directors email for connection information.

The meetings are recorded. The recordings are posted for 30 days here: https://www.carli.illinois.edu/membership/directors#
