| Sumario: | The aim of this research was to determine the circulation of materials held in the University of León’s (ULe) library in order to identify: loan trends; the main users of the collection, and the types of document most frequently loaned. The major interest was to find out the relevance of the book as an information resource. We found that the size of the collection in relation to the number of users was adequate, that the circulation of the collection was relatively low, although with notable differences between libraries, and that loans, as well as the collection are dominated by printed books. |
