Top 20 PDF Downloads for August 2011

Each month NALD releases Library user statistics in a feature known as the Top 20 downloads/20 Plus téléchargés. The report examines the number of NALD Library documents, in both English and French, which are viewed and downloaded by visitors to the websites NALD, NALD@Work, BDAA and BDAA@uTravail.

The growth in the number of document downloads is a result of both increased usage and continued expansion of NALD’s full-text document holdings. This growth also indicates a high and growing demand for relevant, full-text documents by the Canadian literacy and essential skills community.

Documents from this list originated from different regions of Canada. They are representative of the NALD Library and its learning and research materials.
