SCONUL promotes excellence in library services in higher education and national libraries across the UK and Ireland.

SCONUL has been collecting and publishing statistics from university libraries for over twelve years, with the aim of providing sound information on which policy decisions can be based. Since 1995 the processing of the data has been carried out by the Library and Information Statistics Unit (LISU) at Loughborough University, which maintains a backfile from which trends can be inferred.
