Federal Depository Library PURL Referrals

Many Federal depository libraries have Web sites and online catalogs that contain links to the PURLs available on GPO Access. Each time a user clicks on one of these links the handoff from the depository Web site to GPO is recorded in our Web server log files as a referral. A number of depositories have expressed interest in knowing how many referrals to GPO Access come from their sites. For this reason, a report of these referrals is compiled monthly using the Web addresses Federal depository libraries have registered. Please note that although domains were commonly registered as belonging to a library, many are shared by the institution at large. This is why the referrals are listed by institution, rather than by library. Similarly, if you share an OPAC with a consortium, the referrals are attributed to the consortium, as it is impossible to tell which referrals came from individual members. We have tried to make this report as complete and accurate as possible, but if you think there may be a problem with your institution's information, please e-mail Joe Paskoski at jpaskoski@gpo.gov.

The cumulative report includes all data for the fiscal year to date and is arranged alphabetically. The monthly report is a detailed view in which the number of referrals for each domain name a library has registered is listed separately.
