[ILL-L] GOT THE ANSWER Re: OCLC Usage Statistics: "In-Group" statistics?

[Dale Colston]

"In-Group" is within my consortia.  Most are NJ institutions, one is in MO, is in PA. There are 204 members in my group.
 
"In-Group" Detail Report reflects the activity of all members of that group for a time period.  
I then scroll the list to find my library, NPL. Then I can see what NPL borrowed & loaned for say January 2007.
 
Hopefully this can help someone else.
 
D.

Subject: OCLC Usage Statistics: "In-Group" statistics?


Good Tuesday morning to all:
 
I need some clarification with OCLC Usage  Statistics.  I've called OCLC & PALINET-- waiting for call-backs.  I think  someone on ILL-L  knows...
 
What does "In Group" mean?  Is that the activity that takes places with my state? Some other group?
 
For example, when I login, I see:
 
                 +Institution: NPL
                 +Group: New Jersey (New Jersey)
              
When I expand the "Group: New Jersey (New Jersey), I see:               

	Borrower Activity Overview Report
	Lender Activity Overview Report
	Borrower Transaction-Level Detail Report
	Lender Transaction-Level Detail Report
	In-Group Summary Report
	In-Group Detail Report
	

 
What does "In-Group" mean?  I really AM looking for the stats that reflect what we, NPL, loan within the state of NJ?
 
If you want you may call or e- me off-list.
 
Thanks ever so,
Dale
