Many thanks, Terran and Lindsay!  I think you have set me on the right path, 
and I will know shortly since I am getting ready to see if I can corral the 
information we need.

Hi Deanna,

To add to Terran's suggestion - if your library anonymizes/ages data, you will 
probably want to use the Combined Aged and Active Circulations source! That 
will ensure you get all the circs, not just those still associated with patrons.

Hi Deanna,

I would probably do something like this, which only looks at the items that 
actually circulated:

Source: Circulation

Filters:
Checkout / Renewal Library (In List)
Checkout Date/Time (Transform to Date, change Operator to Between)
(and then maybe filters for shelving location and/or call number to focus on 
particular sections, depending on the size of the library)

Display:
(whichever display you fields you want here - I usually do owning library, 
shelving location, call number, title, author, barcode)
Circ ID (Transform to Count - this will total up the number of circs for each 
item).

I hope that helps,
Terran

Subject: [Evergreen-general] Most Circulations in Past Year

Hi, Adam,

I have been trying to figure out a way to see how many times each book 
circulated in 2021 or, in lieu of that, in the past 12 months.  I know this 
data is somewhere because I can see it on the Quick Summary tab when I view an 
item’s history.  There is a column that says “Total Circs – Current Year.”  
Would I be correct in assuming that “Current Year” is equal to the past 12 
months in this case?

I cannot figure out from which table this information is drawn.  I suspect I 
also need to know how to query it just right to get the timeframe I want.  Can 
you point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
Deanna
