English abstract

Systematic random sample of technical reports and standards of ISRO Satellite Centre (ISAC) Library has been examined to record over 400 lent out use. The use of reports has been analysed with frequency table to identify the unused and fairly used reports. The relative use of reports of different issuing agencies, of different year of publication and year of acquisition are discussed. The longitudinal use of reports over time factor is examined. Notes scarce use of reports and negligible use of standards. Provides appropriate feedback for collection development
