Just curious

What is Ocean County Library's patron to librarian ratio?

Good question. I think we've distributed over a million library cards. Which, if each of those is attached to a person is 1 librarian to 8,333 patrons. I'm sure that each of those cards is not attached to a current user. If we use the much more conservative number on OCL's Wikipedia page than the stats are 1 to 2750.

In one of the "things" I read that there is a standard ratio, but now I forget what it was or where I read it. Thanks for the information.
