In its simplest form the model requires the specification of just two parameters which are easily estimated from circulation statistics which are normally recorded by libraries. Using these estimates, the model is shown to give reasonable agreement with data collected from a variety of University libraries. In view of the recommendations of the Atkinson Report, perhaps the main value of the model lies in the ease with which it can be used to investigate possible consequences of various types of changes in library management policy, including purchase of multiple copies and relegation of stock.
