About Data

Our project focuses on analyzing the library entry information from the card reader logs from 01/01/2016 to 30/06/2016. The card readers are located at the main entrance of LKSLIB and at the linkbridge side entrance. This provides us with the entry information, which includes timestamp and basic information about the student. Raw data files come in CSV format, by monthly, with each tap as a data entry. Therefore we have 6 months data for main entry, and another 6 months for linkbridge. The original columns include:

  • Date: the date when the student enters library (d/m/y)
  • Time: the timestamp when the student enters (h:m:s)
  • Device Name: which gantry the student uses to enter
  • Email: the hashed email of the student
  • User group: which user group the student belongs to (undergrad, master, PHD)
  • Statistical Category 1: the school of the student
  • Statistical Category 2: the major of the student
  • Statistical Category 3: the admission year of the student
  • Statistical Category 4: the graduation year of the student
