Summary
The Higher Education General Information Survey (HEGIS) series was designed to provide comprehensive information on various aspects of postsecondary education in the United States and its territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the Marshall Islands) and Department of Defense schools outside of the United States. Data are available for both public and private two-year and four-year institutions. The HEGIS College and University Libraries component for 1976-1977 sought data on libraries in 2,985 institutions of higher education. Key data elements, presented for up to 16 record types, include number of library collections, number of hours of student assistance and expenditures for wages of library staff, number of employees, total library operating expenditures and budget, funds received for library services, developmental areas, total hours and days of library operation per week, and participation in cooperatives/networks with libraries of other institutions.Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR02116.v1
