虽然已经有研究调查了漫画小说在公共和学术图书馆的流通和使用情况，但还没有一项科学研究在多所学校图书馆调查这些变量。本研究的目的是通过对流通数据的分析和对图书馆员的访谈，更好地了解中学图画小说的收藏情况。定量结果显示，图画小说的发行量在被调查图书馆的总发行量中所占的比例要大于它们在馆藏中所占的比例。通过对调查结果的分析，揭示了这些漫画小说集之间的共性和差异。
Although there have been studies examining the circulation and use of graphic novels in public and academic libraries, there has yet to be a scientific study examining these variables in multiple school libraries. The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of middle school graphic novel collections, through the analysis of circulation data and interviews with librarians. Quantitative results reveal that graphic novel circulation represents a larger proportion of total circulation for the libraries examined, than their percentage of the collection would suggest. Analysis of the survey results reveals commonalities and differences between these graphic novel collections.
