ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
This International Standard provides guidance to the library and information services community on
the collection and reporting of statistics.
Clauses 2 and 6 form the core of this International Standard. Clause 2 provides definitions for most
of the elements which constitute a library service; these are for statistical purposes only. Clause 6
recommends how each of these elements should be counted. Users will need to consult both clauses for
the complete picture.
This International Standard includes definitions and counting procedures for all types of resources and
services that libraries offer to their users. The former Annex A, including definitions and procedures
for electronic resources and services, has been integrated into the main part of the standard, as these
resources and services have become a normal part of library activities.
In order to explain the reasons for incorporating a number of new library services into this International
Standard, Clause 3 has been added to describe the current tasks of libraries.
It is recognized that not all measures specified in this International Standard can be collected by libraries
of different types and sizes. To give greater completeness, several additional measures (important for
some sectors only) are described in Annex A. The aim is to ensure that, where a particular statistic is
collected, the same definitions and methods are used.
Annex B is important for the compilation and publication of national statistics so that they can be truly
comparable between countries and over time.
The strong requirement to describe and publicize library activities can only be satisfied if data collection
in libraries follows the lines of this International Standard. As far as possible, it is advisable that libraries
collect all data named in this International Standard that concern their activities.
Developments in relation to this International Standard will be monitored and additional statistical
measures will be incorporated as needed.
An alphabetical index is given in Annex C.

— for the purposes of international reporting;
— to ensure conformity between countries for those statistical measures that are frequently used by
library managers, but do not qualify for international reporting;
— to encourage good practice in the use of statistics for the management of library and information
services.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d’organismes
nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de l’ISO). L’élaboration des Normes internationales est
en général confiée aux comités techniques de l’ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude
a le droit de faire partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales,
gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l’ISO participent également aux travaux.
L’ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne
la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les procédures utilisées pour élaborer le présent document et celles destinées à sa mise à jour sont
décrites dans les Directives ISO/CEI, Partie 1. Il convient, en particulier, de prendre note des différents
critères d’approbation requis pour les différents types de documents ISO. Le présent document a été
rédigé conformément aux règles de rédaction données dans les Directives ISO/CEI, Partie 2 (voir www.
iso.org/directives).
L’attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire l’objet de
droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. L’ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de
ne pas avoir identifié de tels droits de propriété et averti de leur existence. Les détails concernant les
références aux droits de propriété intellectuelle ou autres droits analogues identifiés lors de l’élaboration
du document sont indiqués dans l’Introduction et/ou dans la liste des déclarations de brevets reçues par
l’ISO (voir www.iso.org/patents).

ISO 2789:2013(F)
Introduction
La présente Norme internationale fournit des règles à la communauté des bibliothèques et des services
d’information pour la collecte et la présentation de statistiques.
Les Articles 2 et 6 forment le cœur de la présente Norme internationale. L’Article 2 fournit les définitions
de la plupart des éléments composant le service d’une bibliothèque; ces définitions ne s’appliquent que
dans une perspective statistique. L’Article 6 indique comment compter chacun des éléments définis. Il
est nécessaire que les utilisateurs consultent les deux articles pour disposer d’une vue complète.
La présente Norme internationale comprend les définitions et les procédures de comptage pour tous les
types de ressources et de services que les bibliothèques proposent à leurs usagers. L’ancienne Annexe A,
comprenant les définitions et les procédures relatives aux ressources et services électroniques, a
été incorporée dans le corps du texte de la norme dans la mesure où ces ressources et services font
désormais partie intégrante des activités de bibliothèque.
Afin d’expliciter les raisons de l’insertion d’un certain nombre de nouveaux services de bibliothèque
dans la présente Norme internationale, l’Article 3 a été ajouté pour décrire les missions actuelles des
bibliothèques.
Il va sans dire que l’ensemble des données définies dans la présente Norme internationale ne peuvent
être collectées par des bibliothèques de types ou de tailles différents. À titre de complément, l’Annexe A
décrit des données supplémentaires (qui n’ont d’importance que dans certains cas uniquement). L’objectif
visé est de garantir que lorsque l’on collecte une donnée statistique particulière, on utilise toujours les
mêmes définitions et les mêmes méthodes.
L’Annexe B est importante pour recueillir et publier des statistiques nationales qui soient véritablement
comparables entre les pays et dans le temps.
On ne peut satisfaire la forte demande de description et de diffusion de l’activité des bibliothèques que si
la collecte des données dans les bibliothèques suit les lignes de la présente Norme internationale. Autant
que possible, il est recommandé que les bibliothèques collectent toutes les données de leur activité citées
dans la présente Norme internationale.
Les développements en rapport avec la présente Norme internationale seront supervisés et de nouvelles
mesures statistiques seront incorporées en fonction des besoins.
Un index est donné à l’Annexe C.

Predgovor
ISO (Mednarodna organizacija za standardizacijo) je svetovna zveza nacionalnih organov za
standarde (članov ISO). Mednarodne standarde ponavadi pripravljajo tehnični odbori ISO. Vsak član,
ki želi delovati na določenem področju, za katero je bil ustanovljen tehnični odbor, ima pravico biti
zastopan v tem odboru. Pri delu sodelujejo mednarodne vladne in nevladne organizacije, povezane z
ISO. V vseh zadevah, ki so povezane s standardizacijo na področju elektrotehnike, ISO tesno
sodeluje z Mednarodno elektrotehniško komisijo (IEC).
Postopki, uporabljeni pri razvoju tega dokumenta, ter postopki, namenjeni za njegovo nadaljnje
vzdrževanje, so opisani v Direktivah ISO/IEC, 1. del. Upoštevana naj bodo še posebej različna merila
za odobritev, ki se uporabljajo za različne vrste dokumentov ISO. Ta dokument je bil pripravljen v
skladu z uredniškimi pravili v Direktivah ISO/IEC, 2. del (glej tudi www.iso.org/directives).
Opozoriti je treba na možnost, da je lahko nekaj elementov tega mednarodnega standarda predmet
patentnih pravic. ISO ne prevzema odgovornosti za ugotavljanje katerih koli ali vseh takih patentnih
pravic. Podrobnosti vseh patentnih pravic, ki se pojavijo v tem dokumentu, bodo navedene v Uvodu
in/ali na seznamu patentnih prijav ISO (glej www.iso.org/patents).
Vsaka blagovna znamka, uporabljena v tem dokumentu, služi le kot informacija uporabnikom za lažje
razumevanje in ne pomeni njenega promoviranja.
Za razlago pomena določenih terminov in izrazov ISO, povezanih z ocenjevanjem skladnosti, ter za
informacije o ISO-vem upoštevanju načel WTO o tehničnih ovirah pri trgovanju (TBT) (WTO principles
in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT)) glej naslednji URL: Foreword - Supplementary information.
Za ta dokument je odgovoren tehnični odbor ISO/TC 46 Informatika in dokumentacija, pododbor SC 8
Kakovost – Statistika in vrednotenje uspešnosti.
Ta peta izdaja preklicuje in nadomešča četrto izdajo (ISO 2789:2006), ki je bila tehnično revidirana, da
bi bile prepoznane in premagane težave, ki so se pojavile pri praktični uporabi ISO 2789:2006, in da bi
bil upoštevan nov razvoj elektronskih storitev knjižnic.

SIST ISO 2789 : 2013
Uvod
Ta mednarodni standard daje napotke za zbiranje in posredovanje statističnih podatkov, ki se
nanašajo na ponudnike knjižničnih in informacijskih storitev.
Točki 2 in 6 predstavljata jedro tega mednarodnega standarda. V točki 2 so opredeljene definicije za
večino elementov, ki sestavljajo knjižnične storitve; te definicije so namenjene izključno za potrebe
statistike. Točka 6 vsebuje priporočila, kako naj se vsak od teh elementov šteje. Da bi si uporabniki
lahko ustvarili celotno sliko, morajo upoštevati obe točki.
Ta mednarodni standard vključuje definicije in postopke za štetje vseh vrst virov in storitev, ki jih
knjižnice nudijo svojim uporabnikom. Nekdanji dodatek A, vključno z vsemi definicijami in postopki za
elektronske vire in storitve, je bil vključen v osrednji del standarda, saj so ti viri in storitve postali
običajen del aktivnosti knjižnice.
Točka 3, ki opisuje trenutne naloge knjižnic, je bila temu dokumentu dodana za pojasnitev razlogov za
vključitev številnih novih knjižničnih storitev v ta mednarodni standard.
Razumljivo je, da knjižnice različnih vrst in velikosti ne morejo izvesti vseh meritev, določenih v tem
mednarodnem standardu. Za zagotovitev večje usklajenosti so v dodatku A opisane nekatere dodatne
meritve (pomembne le za nekatere sektorje). Namen je doseči rabo enakih definicij in metod tudi pri
posebnem načinu zbiranja statističnih podatkov.
Dodatek B ima pomembno vlogo pri zbiranju in objavljanju nacionalnih statistik, da jih je tako dejansko
mogoče primerjati med državami in v daljšem časovnem obdobju.
Stroge zahteve za popisovanje in objavljanje aktivnosti knjižnic je mogoče izpolniti samo, če so pri
zbiranju podatkov v knjižnicah upoštevana določila tega mednarodnega standarda. Če je le mogoče,
je priporočljivo, da knjižnice zbirajo vse podatke, navedene v tem mednarodnem standardu, ki se
nanašajo na njihove aktivnosti.
Razvoj na področju tega mednarodnega standarda bo spremljan in hkrati bodo v standard po potrebi
vključene morebitne dodatne statistične meritve.
Abecedni seznam je podan v dodatku C.

Informatika in dokumentacija – Mednarodna statistika za knjižnice
1 Področje uporabe
Ta mednarodni standard določa pravila za ponudnike knjižničnih in informacijskih storitev, ki se
nanašajo na zbiranje in posredovanje statističnih podatkov:
– za namen mednarodnega poročanja,
– za zagotovitev skladnosti med državami za tiste statistične meritve, ki jih vodstvo knjižnic pogosto
izvaja, vendar niso ustrezne za mednarodno poročanje,
– za spodbujanje dobre prakse pri uporabi statistike za upravljanje knjižničnih in informacijskih
storitev.

2.2.1
dostop
uspešna zahteva po spletni storitvi, ki jo zagotavlja knjižnica
OPOMBA 1: Dostop je en cikel uporabnikove aktivnosti, ki se navadno začne, ko se uporabnik poveže s spletno storitvijo, ki
jo zagotavlja knjižnica, ter se konča s prekinitvijo aktivnosti, ki je bodisi eksplicitna (z zapustitvijo podatkovne
zbirke preko odjave ali izhoda) bodisi implicitna (pretečen čas zaradi uporabnikove neaktivnosti).
OPOMBA 2: Dostopi do spletnega mesta knjižnice se štejejo za virtualni obisk.
OPOMBA 3: Zahteve po dostopu do splošne vstopne strani ali portala naj se izključijo.

OPOMBA 2: Uporaba elektronskih storitev knjižnice je lahko vključena, če je mogoče identificirati elektronsko rabo in
virtualne obiske posameznega uporabnika oziroma če je podatke mogoče pridobiti z raziskavami.
OPOMBA 3: Kadar knjižnica s pomočjo raziskav identificira neregistrirane aktivne uporabnike, naj se štejejo ločeno.
2.2.4
blog
