IQ Diversity

 

Understand how diverse your collection is and how it's performing. 

IQ Diversity gives library staff a clear, detailed view of how their collection represents and serves their community — and how it's circulating, where the gaps are, and what to focus on.


 
 
 

What Makes IQ Diversity Different

IQ Diversity uses both BISAC and Library of Congress subject headings to identify diverse items across dozens of topics and subtopics — giving you a more complete picture of your collection's diversity than ever before.

And it goes beyond makeup. IQ Diversity shows you how your collection is actually performing: what's circulating, what's sitting on the shelf, what needs to be weeded, and where you’re understocked relative to demand.

 
 

 
 

The Full Picture of Your Diverse Collection

Makeup & Performance

Explore your diverse collection by topic, subtopic, age group, classification, or collection code. Filter down to the level that matters to your library: a single branch, a system-wide view, or a specific topic across your entire collection. View circulation data, benchmarks for comparison, stock status, and weeding recommendations.

Recommended Diverse Titles

Compare your collection against curated, industry-recognized lists of diverse titles. See your coverage at a glance, identify what's missing, and create shopping carts directly from the recommendations.

Items Added

Track how your diverse purchases have evolved over time with three years of data so you can see real trends. See what you've been buying, how those items are circulating, and where purchasing may need to shift. Filter by topic, collection, or classification to get as specific as you need.

By Branch

See diversity performance across your entire system at once — how diverse each branch's collection is, how it's circulating, and how each location covers every topic side by side.
