Overview• Measuring the Impact of Networked
Electronic Services (MINES): an online, transaction-based survey that collects data on the purpose of use of electronic resources and on the demographics of users.
• Short, 5 question web survey that is delivered at the point of use, every 250 times an e-journal, or ebook is accessed from Scholars Portal.
• Survey included all OCUL schools except U of T, Algoma, and OCAD and ran Feb 2010 - Feb2011
MINES for LibrariesA short web-based survey that intercepts a user as
they attempt to access an electronic resource.
Patron status: faculty, grad, undergradAffiliation: departmentLocation: in library, on campus, off
campusPurpose of use: funded/non-funded
research, teaching, coursework
Why they chose: important resource, recommended,
reading list
Why OCUL Turned to MINES
• To capture in-library and remote web usage of the OCUL Libraries eresources
• To identify the demographic differences between in-house library users as compared to remote users
• To identify users’ purposes for accessing OCUL’s electronic services
• To develop an evaluation infrastructure to make studies of patron usage of networked electronic resources routine, robust, and integrated into the decision-making process.

OCUL I : 2004• Randomly selected 2 hour periods each
month for a year• Mandatory
