How do you measure Serials Usage at your Library?

Hello All,
I'm the Evening/Serials Assistant at Bennington College, and a student at
Simmons College (where I'm getting my MLIS). As part of my coursework at
Simmons, and because it's of interest considering my position at
Bennington, I've been studying Serials Usage studies. Currently I'm
working on a Research Proposal on this topic - which I'm hoping to
implement at Bennington if possible, as we currently do not have a method
of measuring Serials Use. As you can imagine, I've done quite a lot of
research on the topic - but I'd be interested to hear if/how other
libraries address the issue of measuring Serials Use - particularly in
libraries that have a non-circulating collection.
Thanks for your input!
Best Regards,
Christina J. Jedziniak
