This is a spreadsheet of library expenditure data prepared for NEASC's five-year accreditation visit to the University of Rhode Island in fall 2012. It presents time series data from 1995/96 to 2010/11 on total expenditures on monographs (books), total number of monographs purchased, total gift volumes added, expenditures on monographs as a percentage of total materials expenditures, and purchasing power of the library's monograph budget calculated by deflating monograph expenditures by the U.S. College Books price index to 1995 dollars.
