Predicting the Need for Multiple Copies of Books 1971-06-01 8 .pdf application/pdf 2738 156 70 CONCLUSIONS A close examination of the 570 titles apparently in need of duplication reveals that, with very few exceptions, students are apparently checking out only books that are curriculum oriented in the most narrow sense, i,e., books which they need to use in writing term papers. An article by William L. Leffler ( 1) suggested a system of adapting industrial inventory techniques to the problem of identifying books to be duplicated that would be compatible with the Library's computer based circulation system and also could be expected to be simpler and more thorough than the above method of buying multiple copies. cache/ital-5583.pdf txt/ital-5583.txt
