Dear all,

I am looking to collect data about how our archives are used by researchers, in order to gather information on how often specific records/collections are used and to flag up research trends, conservation issues and missing records. I'm hoping to obtain existing methodologies used by archive services for benchmarking purposes, particularly the databases used to record these data sets. I'd be very grateful if anyone could pass on their experiences of collecting this data and also any advice they'd be happy to pass on.

please reply off-list to [log in to unmask] I am happy to summarise responses.

Many thanks,

Robin Sampson
