Please forward all correspondence and data files regarding e-resource use statistics to Christine Turner.
Working files for this project are located at: S (coll_management):\Acquisitions\ER Usage Statistics.

Data files downloaded from vendor/host sites are stored in sub-folders by fiscal year (July 1 – June 30), e.g. “2005-2006 Vendor Stats”, “2006-2007 Vendor Stats”.
Within the “dbs-annuals” subfolder, “DBUse_FY200x.xls” has two worksheets: “Data” by title for monthly sessions, searches, turnaways, etc.; and “Procedures” for the means and formats for obtaining the data. Data for fiscal years 2006-2011 is posted to LibWire under Divisions & Departments/Acquisitions/E-Resource Use Statistics.
E-book usage data is not systematically collected at this time. However, procedures for obtaining the data are
available.
E-Journal usage data collection procedures are available below. COUNTER JR1 reports are either manually or automatically loaded via SUSHI to USTAT (see login information below).
