| 報告 | 說明 |
|---|---|
| In-Group Summary Report | A monthly snapshot of borrowing and lending activity inside your designated group compared with activity outside the group. For the selected month the report shows total transactions (copies and loans), the percentage of activity that was in‑group, and average turnaround times for all requests and separately for copies and loans. Use it to evaluate in‑group performance for that month and compare in‑group versus out‑of‑group activity. |
| In-Group Detail Report | A monthly, institution‑level breakdown of in‑group borrowing and lending for the selected month. For each member the report lists institution name and OCLC symbol, location and library type, and counts for in‑group borrowing and lending (totals, copies, originals). Use this to see which members are the largest borrowers or lenders within the group and to examine monthly distribution of in‑group activity. |
| Borrower Activity Overview Report – Group | Shows borrowing activity totals for all institutions in the group over a selected reporting period (single month or multiple months). For each month the report lists requests initiated and requests from WorldCat, requests cancelled, requests filled (separate counts for loans and copies), requests unfilled, and average turnaround time for all filled requests plus separate metrics for loan and copy fulfillment. Use it to monitor group‑wide borrowing volume, fulfillment rates, and turnaround times across the selected months. |
| Lender Activity Overview Report – Group | Shows group‑wide lending activity for the selected reporting period (single month or multiple months). For each month the report lists requests received and requests from WorldCat, requests cancelled, requests filled (separate counts for loans and copies), requests unfilled, and average turnaround time for all filled requests plus separate metrics for loan and copy fulfillment. Use it to monitor lending volume, fill rates, and turnaround performance across the selected months. |
| Borrower Transaction‑Level Detail Report – Group | An institution‑by‑institution listing of borrower‑side transactions involving group members for the selected month. For each member the report shows institution name and OCLC symbol, state and library type, and transaction counts including requests initiated, requests from WorldCat, requests cancelled, requests filled (loans and copies), requests unfilled, and average turnaround time for filled requests (overall, loan, and copy). Use it to review detailed borrowing activity and institution‑level fulfillment and turnaround performance for the selected month.
Note: Each institution row only shows unique request counts (even if handled by multiple lenders), so the number of requests is lower than the number represented in the report's Institution version. |
| Lender Transaction‑Level Detail Report – Group | An institution‑by‑institution listing of lender‑side transactions involving group members for the selected month. For each member the report shows institution name and OCLC symbol, state and library type, and transaction counts including requests received, requests from WorldCat, requests cancelled, requests filled (loans and copies), requests unfilled, and average turnaround time for filled requests (overall, loan, and copy). Use it to review detailed lending activity, fill rates, and institution‑level turnaround performance for the selected month. |
| ILL Fee Management Program Lender Report – Group | Shows lender‑side ILL fee activity for group members for the selected month. The report lists each borrowing institution (symbol and name), the lender symbol, the request count, and the fee amount (currency shown on the report). Linked borrower symbols let you jump to underlying transactions. Use it to review fees billed to borrowers by lender across the group for the selected month and to identify high‑fee borrowers or lenders. |
| Resource Sharing Lender Reasons For No Report – Group | Lists refused requests for the selected month with key identifying information and the reported reason for not filling (for example: ILL record number, title, OCLC number/imprint date where available, borrower symbol and name, and reason for no). Use it to analyze refusal reasons across the group during the selected month and to inform lending policies or deflection rules. |
| Lender Resource Sharing Stats Report – Group | A detailed listing of lending transactions handled by group members for the selected month, with bibliographic and billing information included. Use it to inspect individual lending transactions across the group for the selected month, verify bibliographic and billing details, and identify items or borrowers associated with higher costs or unusual records. |
