Computer sessions are counted using software. EnvisionWare Computer Access and Reservation System allows library patrons to schedule time to use library computers. In addition, the Envisionware Database tracks the number of print jobs by user and printer. This functionality allows DCPL to track the number of sessions, hours of usage at each DCPL computer workstation, and the number of print jobs and pages at each printer. The output of this EnvisionWare system is a dataset that tracks the number of unique computer sessions, total hours of computer usage, printer sessions, and printer usage at each DCPL workstation by user account. The dataset includes personally identifiable information (PII) of users.
