Abstract

[Purpose/significance] To improve the management of book procurement and circulation,and to realize the standardization management of timely monitoring,and evaluation of the collection acquisition, the total volume and structure of the collection, etc. [Method/process] We compared the correlation, variability and adaptability of three H-family indices H-index, A-index and G-index. Then we choosed H-index as present of suitability for the evaluation of book circulation. And we used H-index to analyze the top 20% of NWAFU library's book circulation data from 2014 to 2018. [Result/conclusion] The result of analysis shows that A-index is a more comprehensive and precise indicator with ideal performance for identifying the core readers, core publishers and core publication years when the statistical relation between first category of Chinese Library Classification together with reader's gender, readers' major, readers' grade, readers' department, book's publisher and book's publication year are concerned, while it is able to select core readers, core publishers and core years more comprehensively and accurately. Besides, Bradford law can not only be applied to periodical management but also be applied to book management. This paper can provide a reference a basis for exploring the use of H-index in analyzing book circulation data.
