Collecting usage statistics


• What are we doing it for?

• Who are we doing it for?

• What does it all mean?
What are we doing it for?

Usage statistics provide essential evidence:
• to show how e-resources are being used
• to look at trends over time
• to inform renewal/cancellation decisions
• to demonstrate value for money
Who are we doing it for?

Different audiences:

• Library directors

• Academic staff

• Subject librarians
What does it all mean?


• What can the usage statistics tell us?




• What other evidence do we need?
What do libraries want from
usage data?
• Be sure it is right
• How well titles in a deal are being used:
  – High use, nil and low use
• Usage by subject area
• Analyse trends over time
• Ready access for reporting
• Evidence of value for money
• Benchmarking
Collecting the evidence

COUNTER codes of practice:
• Journals and databases
• E-books

Dealing with publishers who are not COUNTER
 compliant
Making it as easy as
possible

• KPI templates



• JUSP – the Journal Usage Statistics Portal
           www.jusp.mimas.ac.uk

   money

Using the JR1 and JR1a reports
• JR1 and JR1a usage reports from publishers

• + Add JR1 usage from
  intermediaries/gateways where necessary

• - Minus JR1a archive usage to see usage of
  current deal

   • What titles are in the deal?
Where's the evidence? The role of usage statistics in collection management
How many titles are in the deal?
Project Muse JR1 for 2011 for a library with the
Basic Research Collection–
   Titles in the Premium Collection in the JR1      498

   Titles in the Basic Research Collection          206

   Titles in the JR1 not available to the Library   292




59% of titles in the JR1 are not in the library’s
deal and will show nil use.
JUSP enhancements


• Usage patterns of subscribed or core titles

• Identification of titles in the deal or collection
  within the JR1 report

• Adding more publishers
Adding more value

• Costs

• FTE numbers

• Benchmarking
SCONUL derived ratios

•   Journal article download per FTE user
•   E-book section request per FTE user
•   Section requests per e-book
•   Cost per e-journal title
•   Cost per e-book
•   Cost per e-book section request
•   Cost per journal article download

  • 3. What are we doing it for? Usage statistics provide essential evidence: • to show how e-resources are being used • to look at trends over time • to inform renewal/cancellation decisions • to demonstrate value for money
  • 4. Who are we doing it for? Different audiences: • Library directors • Academic staff • Subject librarians
  • 5. What does it all mean? • What can the usage statistics tell us? • What other evidence do we need?
  • 6. What do libraries want from usage data? • Be sure it is right • How well titles in a deal are being used: – High use, nil and low use • Usage by subject area • Analyse trends over time • Ready access for reporting • Evidence of value for money • Benchmarking
  • 7. Collecting the evidence COUNTER codes of practice: • Journals and databases • E-books Dealing with publishers who are not COUNTER compliant
  • 8. Making it as easy as possible • KPI templates • JUSP – the Journal Usage Statistics Portal www.jusp.mimas.ac.uk

  • 16. Using the JR1 and JR1a reports • JR1 and JR1a usage reports from publishers • + Add JR1 usage from intermediaries/gateways where necessary • - Minus JR1a archive usage to see usage of current deal
  • 20. Some other JUSP reports • Titles with the highest use from one publisher or all publishers in JUSP • Titles in various usage ranges, from nil and low to very high • Search facility – title or ISSN or keyword • Trends over time (2009- ) • SCONUL return
  • 25. Adding value to usage reports Adding value to JUSP JUSP enhancements • Adding subscribed or core titles • What titles are in the deal?

Editor's Notes

  1. Slide 2Without COUNTER of course none of this would be possible because for the portal to succeed it must offer reliable data. All our reports are based on the main COUNTER reports the JR1 and the JR1a.
