[Khorfakkan Public Library Statistics for 2013]

Abstract

This item presents a statistical report on Khorfakkan Public Library for 2013 through a set of tables and charts documenting several indicators of library activity and service use. The pages include data on visits by children’s centers, schools, institutes, and colleges, as well as indicators related to users by language, age group, account/category, nationality, opening hours, and book circulation. The report reveals patterns of library use throughout the year and provides quantitative evidence on attendance, access to collections, and service engagement. It also supports library performance assessment, monitoring the library’s relationship with educational and cultural institutions in Khorfakkan, and identifying the main user groups benefiting from its services. The item is useful for library managers and researchers in library and information science, particularly in the areas of performance indicators, public library services, and planning for the development of reading and circulation services within Sharjah library branches.
