Some random reference stats

Interesting chart of time of incoming reference questions (mostly via our online Ask-a-Librarian web form or e-mail) on Wednesdays of this year (1/1/08 - 5/22/08):


I find it somewhat strange that there is a large number of incoming emails from 7-8 AM and from 9-10 PM, despite our official Wed. hours being from 9AM to 9PM.

Although the working adult nature of our students does help explain it a bit (i.e., they do their school work before and or after the regular working day).

Now onto the rest of the stats...
