Primes¶
- Locality Of Reference
- Library and information science: A small set of recently and frequently consulted works dominates circulation, and reserve collections, reshelving heuristics, and open-stack layout all exploit the fact that the next request is disproportionately likely to be for a recently-requested or topically-adjacent item.
This sourceCirculation study showing demand concentrates on a small recently-and-frequently-consulted subset of holdings (the 80/20 rule), the empirical basis for reserve collections and reshelving heuristics as physical caches.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
