Note: the PCC Directory website is arranged by the Library of Congress's fiscal year, which begins in October.  Thus, statistics for the October/November/December period fall into the "fiscal year" that is one year later than the calendar year: October/November/December 2023 = Fiscal year 2024.  Once you select the fiscal year, the months will be laid out by their correct calendar year.

 

NACO

  • Go to the OCLC Statistics Portal and sign in.
  • Detailed instructions for how to use the OCLC Statistics Portal can be found here.
  • Open the "Institution" accordion tab, click on "Monthly Usage Report," then click on "By Interface: Connexion Client."
  • From the new table, select "Authority Record Actions."
  • You will see "LC Authority Adds" (that is new NARs) and "LC Authority Replaces" (that is updates to existing NARs) laid out by month.
  • Add up the 3 months that make your quarter for both Adds and Replaces.
  • Next, go back to the list of authorizations under the "Institution" and select the account for the Music Funnel (NIC-Mu) alone, 100-296-000.
  • Harvest the LC Authority Adds and Replaces from the Music Funnel account.
  • Subtract the Music Funnel Adds from Institution totals.  Subtract the Music Funnel Replaces from the Institution totals.  These statistics are reported separately in the PCC Directory through the Music Funnel by Tracey Snyder.
  • Log into the PCC Directory site. Under Institution Statistics, select Submit Statistics, then select your fiscal year.  Enter the Institution figures minus the Music Funnel figures on the NACO line for the latest applicable month, combining three months for the quarter.
