- 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.
