Book Genre

A a book holding may have multiple genres and 4087 genre classifications have been applied to 3476 book holding records at Glasgow University Library. The first visualisation shows the total number of book holdings we have catalogued from the library (we have only catalogued books that are actually borrowed, not the entire collection), divided into sections for genre, while the second visualisation shows the total number of borrowing acts we have catalogued, divided into sections for the genre of the associated book. The comparison between the two shows the relative popularity of genres. If all genres were borrowed equally then the two visualisations for a library would be the same. What is interesting is when the visualisations differ, as this shows where a particular genre is more (or less) popular than another. In the visualisations, press on a genre's segment to perform a search for its associated borrowing records.
