LibStats changes

For the past few years, there has been a hidden link on the left hand side of the website that would take you to the LibStats entry screen. Last year, the librarians moved from using LibStats to LibAnalytics, and this week the front desk switched over as well. You’ll still be able to run reports on the data you’ve entered in the past, but we’re retiring LibStats as a data-entry tool.

A few changes of note:

• The hidden link on the website is gone. If you need to enter a front-desk transaction you can still use the short URL: https://gvsu.edu/library/libstats. The link redirects to the new LibAnalytics form.
• If you want to run reports on the old LibStats for your FAR or EPDP, you can visit the old reporting interface at http://labs.library.gvsu.edu/libstats/reportList.do.

Let me know if you have any questions!
