Predicting Library Circulation From Community Characteristics
Edwin B. Parker, William Paisley · Public Opinion Quarterly · 1965
In this study the authors investigate the relative influence of ten variables as predictors of library circulation in the United States. Their findings regarding the relationship between level of female education and total library circulation; population sixe of community and circulation of fiction; and community income level and nonfiction use of libraries are a few of many significant dis coveries. An earlier version of this paper was presented at the American Sociological Association meetings in Montreal in September 1964.
