LibraryIQ, a leading provider of library intelligence and operations solutions, has announced significant updates to IQ Diversity within the LibraryIQ Platform.
IQ Diversity has been significantly expanded with deeper tagging, more topics and subtopics, and new ways to understand how a library's diverse collection is performing.
LibraryIQ uses both BISAC and Library of Congress subject headings, resulting in a more complete and accurate picture of collection diversity across dozens of topics and subtopics.
New and updated capabilities include:
- Makeup & Performance: View the diverse collection by topic, subtopic, age group, classification, or collection code - with circulation data, IQ benchmarks for peer comparison, stock status, and weeding recommendations
- Items Added: Track diverse purchases over time with three years of data, including year-over-year comparisons and item-level detail
- By Branch: See diversity performance across every branch at once - collection makeup, circulation, and topic coverage for every location, side by side
- Weeding Candidates: Surface diverse items that haven't circulated, filterable by topic, age group, and collection
- Recommended Diverse Titles: Compare collections against curated, industry-recognized title lists and create shopping carts directly from recommendations
- Full Platform Integration: Diversity topics and subtopics are attached to items throughout the IQ Platform, making diversity data available across multiple collections tools
