[Statistics for 2003: Diba Al-Hisn Library]

Abstract

This item presents the 2003 statistics of Diba Al-Hisn Library through tables and charts documenting patterns of library use throughout the year. The data include internal circulation by subject divisions, such as general knowledge, philosophy and psychology, religion, social sciences, languages, pure sciences, applied sciences, arts, literature, history, and geography. The material also presents library visitors by gender and nationality, opening-hour periods, occupational categories, and age groups. It shows a total of 4,191 visitors, with students forming the most prominent occupational group and strong representation among users under 15 years old and those aged 16 to 20. These statistics provide a quantitative basis for assessing library services, analyzing user profiles, developing collections, organizing opening hours, and improving library planning. The pages constitute an independent statistical section within the 2003 annual statistics file, rather than an analytical article or theoretical research paper.
