2. What is SBII? The SUNY Business Intelligence Initiative (SBII) is a SUNY-wide effort to provide data analysis and reporting tools for a wide range of university information. SBII is using the Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) software tools. An article in SUNYergy provides an overview of the project: http://www.sunyconnect.suny.edu/sunyergy/40SBII.htm 2

3. Purpose of the Circulation and Collection Reports analyze and compare aggregate holdings –SUNY-wide –by SUNY sectors, by regions, and campus defined peer groups compare data between/among selected campuses and sectors/regions access collection usage using circulation information analyze circulation activity by patron status 3

4. Purpose of the Reports cont’d analyze collections, circulation activity and patron status usage by subject, publication date, language, format, other qualifiers (secondary formats, material description, target audience, form of item, government publication) determine collection age and rate of growth view overlaps and gaps of the SUNY Library Collection identify unique campus holdings 4

5. Not a Campus-Specific Tool The goal of these dashboards is to provide for SUNY wide collection analysis rather than create a specific campus reporting tool. 5

In addition, circulation activity can be analyzed by year of circulation, patron type and by lending policy. 8

9. Collection Analysis Dashboard Seven Dashboard Pages were created to help analyze and compare bibliographic holdings SUNY-wide, by sectors and regions, and with selected campuses. The analysis includes identification of unique holdings and overlap of holdings among campuses; review of collections’ ages and rate of growth based on publication dates; and the ability to filter by a variety of attributes including subject areas, language, and format. 9
