Historical Google Analytics Usage Reports for CARLI Digital Collections, 2011-2015

The Created Content Committee examines usage quarterly reports created by the Google Analytics tool for the CARLI Digital Collections site as a whole. These reports are used to identify trends amongst the visitors to the Collections, what they are looking for, and how they come to visit the site. The reports were first developed by the former CARLI Digital Collections Users' Group.

System Downtime 2016-01-10

On Sunday, January 10, all CARLI-supported systems will go offline for maintenance sometime between 6:00 AM and 10:00 AM.

The length of downtime will vary by service from approximately 5 minutes (most services) to approximately 1 hour (I-Share/Voyager-related services).

CARLI Digital Collections maintenance, 6-9am

On Sunday, Nov. 1, 2015 from 6am - 9am, searching and browsing in CARLI Digital Collections will be unavailable due to software maintenance and rebuilding of all collection indexes.  

Direct links to digital items and collection home pages will be available during the maintenance, but all Searches and Browse Collection attempts will result in the message "Your search retrieved no results."  This includes use of the options on the CARLI Digital Collections home page to find collections by institution, by media, and by topic.

Collection usage statistics

July 1, 2015  (updated Aug. 6, 2015)

The CARLI Digital Collections Monthly Statistics and Annual Collection Size reports will be temporarily unavailable while CARLI staff convert the scripts and pages due to the upgrade of the CONTENTdm software.  All Logs are being kept and statistics for June and July 2015 will be able to be run once the conversion is complete.  Thanks for your patience!

CARLI Seeking Proposals for FY2014 Research Subsidy Program

CARLI is seeking proposals for the FY2014 Research Subsidy Program. Funded by the CARLI Board of Directors, the research awards will support research projects in Governing member libraries. Projects should have the potential to impact libraries and the library profession positively, have the potential to provide a useful addition to the existing literature, and be of interest or use to CARLI libraries. Total funding for FY2014 is $25,000.
