A reminder of the key concepts, terminology and reports

4. A reminder about R5
• There are just 4 main ‘master reports’: platform, database, title, and item
• Master reports contain a lot of information covering various metrics (user actions counted) and
attributes (info about the content)
• Master reports can be filtered to show limited ‘views’ of the data which are more manageable
• COUNTER have defined a set of ‘standard views’
• pre-set filters
• most common uses cases
• suppliers must provide
• Master reports can be filtered in other ways as well

16. How does this compare with Release 4?
JUSP title master report filtering and database standard views 9 July 2019
Release 4 DB1
• 4 metrics: Regular Searches, Result Clicks, Record Views, Automated/Federated Searches
• Which to use? It depends on the database…
• Difficult to make comparisons and calculate cost per use
• What about full-text databases?
Release 5 DR_D1
• 5 metrics
• Total_Item_Investigations – combines result clicks and record views without duplication
• Searches_Regular – user actively selected the database, or it was the only option
• Searches_Automated - searches conducted through a discovery service or by an automated search agent
• Searches_Federated - user simultaneously search multiple databases hosted by the same or different vendors with a single
query from a single user interface
• Total_Item_Requests – NEW database metric that can be used to evaluate full-text databases
