› Summary reports e.g. SCONUL, top publishers
› Title-level e.g. top titles, accesses denied/turnaways
»Interactivity and export functionality

monthly data or changing data after any restatements
»Visuals remain in development and subject to change
»Visualisations do not replace core JUSP reports
»Export functionality doesn’t include underlying data
»Occasional glitches fromTableau server – see support
