Key Performance Indicators

We have identified important aspects of our service which link with the wider University strategic priorities.

These fall under the headings of:

  • Student success
  • Research and knowledge exchange
  • Engaging with our communities

These aspects of our service are measurable and in order to provide evidence on our performance we collect statistics. These statistics are taken from across the different areas of Library and Learning Services. These are called key performance indicators (KPIs) and can be viewed below. Please note KPIs were not collected in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Please note: If you would like to see KPIs from previous years please contact Chris North, Library Services Manager.
