ARL Statistics® is a series of annual publications that describe the collections, expenditures, staffing, and service activities for the member libraries of the Association of Research Libraries. Statistics have been collected and published annually for the members of the Association since 1961-62. Before that, annual statistics for university libraries were collected by James Gerould, first at Minnesota and later at Princeton. These data cover the years 1907-08 through 1961-62 and are now called the Gerould statistics. The whole data series from 1908 to the present represents the oldest and most comprehensive continuing library statistical series in North America. Print copies are available from:
