About STA and Library Terminology
When comparing the data cataloged in the user interfaces of the libraries, for example, with the data as cataloged in the user interface of STA, you may occasionally notice differences in values. The way that a library labels its data within a table or catalogs and counts its media cells are a couple of examples. STA serves to provide a unified model for classification and its counts across the libraries, as customers often have more than one type of library in service. This makes library monitoring easier and more powerful within STA, though some nuances may result from such different cataloging methods.
