New Year - Last Year's Usage Statistics

 Hello everyone.  Just checking in with my library's latest usage statistics.  These are from the 3rd Six Weeks of school, November 3 - December 18, 2025.




This time around I am most impressed with the number of student visits.  I think that I have talked about this before, but it bears repeating.  Summit is one of the smaller high schools in our district, and our student enrollment is a bit over 1800 students.  So the fact that we clocked in 6,482 visitors during this 6 weeks is exciting.  This number obviously means we have a lot of repeat visitors.  These visitors are actual students coming into the library by themselves either during class, before/after school, or during lunch.  We do not count whole classes in this stat.  Class visits have a whole separate category.  So the number of student visitors let's us know we must be doing something right. 



I received this note from a student today.  She came in the library this morning just to deliver it to me.  It made my day, but also made me laugh since I come to work "almost" every day with a smile on my face.  Truer words have never been spoken.  I'm not sure anyone could come to school every day with a smile on their face, but I do most days because I really love what I do.  So I guess I must be doing something right.
