| Abstract: | It is shown that Trueswell's empirical 80/20 rule arises from type of stochastic model for library loans presented by Burrell and Cane. Particular attention is paid to previously suggested uses of rule in identifying "core collection" for library noting that length of time period is of crucial importance. (20 references) (EJS) |
