Aleph Trends

The counts below are for records created in Aleph, by month, from July 2002 - June 2018. Note that not all counts are analogous to a single count in Alma. For example, holding created for e-journals via the Aleph MARCit process would now be indicated by portfolios created in Alma. Please send any questions about these numbers to the Alma Support Center.
