Using 2014 customer and checkout data to group top library users by lifestyles, interests, preferences, and behaviors, the study, which was funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) as part of the 2014 Leadership Grant Program, drills down into community demographics to reveal that core customers aren’t found in any one segment of the population but occur across all lines, reflecting the diversity of their communities.”
