De La Salle University Library Online Pathfinder: an Analysis of Site Usage Logs by Yolanda F. Odsinada Initsliteralsense,apathfindermeans a "map for locating information destinations with street signs and helpful hints along the way." However, a path-finder for librarypurposehas takenona differentmeaning.Originating in theearlypartofthe1970s,thepathfinderasa "reference tool,"asfirstconceivedbyMarieCanfield,whowasa staffmem-ber of the Model Library Project ofProject Intrex, Massachusetts Instituteof Technology, refers to the "step-by-step instructional tool" for "infrequent users or users new to a subject area" (Canfield,p287).Inanotherarticle, thelibrarypathfinderisregardedasa"kind of map to the resources of the library," which facilitates the work of a libraryuser"whose search for recorded materi-als on a subject of interest is just begin-ning" (Dahl,p.227).Forhispart,Buen-rostro(1986,p.47),anotedpractitionerof library science in the Philippines,defined it as an"introductory checklist

of references to those basic sources rep-resenting the variety of forms in which information on a specific topic can be located." Kuntz (2003) made it clearthat it "does not do the work for the stu-dents,"addingthat it ismerelya"path guiding students as they navigate the complex world of the information age" andisa"starting point, a launching pad for students." Thereisadearthofstudiesontheusageanddevelopmentofthepath-finders. In the Philippine setting, onlytwo studies have been conducted.

Building Comprehensive Resources Through Library Consortia Howeverbigalibraryisandhowever rich its collection may be,it cannot be totally self sufficient asitwouldbeimpossibletoacquireallinformation available in the world.Faced with such reality, librariescometogetherintheformofconsor-tia to supplement existing resourcesby providing access to informationavailableinotherlibraries. Committed to cooperation,networking,andlinkagesandhavingre-alizedthebenefitsderivedfromjoiningconsortia, the De La Salle UniversityLibrary actively participates and takesprideinbeingamemberofthefollow-ingconsortia/linkages:

Scope and limitation of the Study The study limited itself to theassessment of usability and effective-ness of online pathfinders in PDF andWEB-basedformatmountedontheDeLa Salle University Library websitefromthetimetheprojectwasinitiatedinNovember2003uptoJanuary2009.

Significance of the Study The result of the study mayshedlightonwhichtopicsarefrequentlysoughtafterbytheDLSUusersandmay

therefore,serveasbasisfordevelopingandenhancingthelibrary’scollection. Applying the “80/20 ParetoRule,”theresultshopedtogiveinsightsonwhetherornotthepathfinderservicehas been effective as far as the attain-mentofitsobjectivesisconcernedandwouldlikewiseserveasaspringboardtowards the improvement of the ser-vice.

Methodology The study employed the de-scriptive quantitative approach utiliz-ingwebmetrictechniquesindetermin-ing the usability and/or success of themounted pathfinders on the Library’sweb page. Web metric is defined as“standardized ways of measuring some-thing as it relates to the Web” (JukkaHeinon,MarcusHagert2004,p.1).Suc-cessofawebsiteorawebpage,onthe

otherhand,isachievedifitattractslargenumberof visitors or people accessingthesaidwebsites/webpages. The source data of the studywere the web logs that recorded theactivity of the user on a real time andcontinuous basis.The researchermadeuseofthefollowingtocollectpertinentdata; virtual visits (pageviews) on thepathfinderwebpage;virtualvisits(pageviews)onspecificpathfinderwebpage;highand lowusepathfinderwebpage/subject/year;top20entrypagesaswellas that of the top 20 entry/exit pages,andadopted the followingdatagather-ingprocedures: sitevisittotheintranetweb statisticspage; collationandgenerationof datareportsobtainedfromthe intranetwebstatistics,and; transferofthesereportdatato


3. The Pareto 80/20 rule whichmaintainsthat“20%ofyouractivitieswillaccountfor80%ofyourresults”affirms that the pathfinder service iseffectiveasfarasattainingtheobjec-tives of the service/program is con-cerned.The top 20 of the 100 path-finders, comprise the 20%.The sumof these top 20 pathfinders, whichis 76,028,when divided by the totalnumberofviewsforallthe100path-findersis113,417or.67(67%)(refertoTable2onpage4).4. Thetop20mostaccessed(hits)pathfinderwebpagesareassumedtobe those that are regarded by the li-brary users as important to them interms of meeting their informationneeds(refertoTable3onpage3).5. Pathfinders are valuable re-sourcesfordistancelearnerswhosel-domvisitthelibraryphysically.About

Summary of Findings The salient findings of thestudyareasfollows:1. The steady increase in usage/access/viewsof thepathfinder’swebpage by remote users through theyearsproved that theeffortand timespent by the staff in creating, devel-opingandupdatingthepathfindersismeaningful andworthwhile (refer toTable1onpage3).2.
