Abstract

The university library book procurement model based on the reader perspective is to obtain data based on the borrowing situation of 22 types of books by 5 major categories of readers, calculate the distribution column of each type of books using the borrowing proportion, and then use the expectation formula to calculate the collection situation of each type of books in the reader's expected library. Using the indicator of relevance, the repeatability in the data collection process is corrected for subsequent book procurement. The data obtained are then used to budget for the next step of book procurement. The basis for determining the procurement is to maximize reader satisfaction and minimize the funds required. To maximize reader satisfaction, the proportion of the number of books actually purchased should be as close as possible to the expected proportion.
