JISC Journal Usage Statistics Portal A simpler way to measure use and impact
Aims & Objectives • To provide UK academic libraries with the statistics they need for the analysis of their NESLi2 deals and the management of their e-journals collections to assist evaluation and decision-making • To provide JISC Collections NESLi2 negotiators with the statistics they need to ensure the best deals for the academic community
How can JUSP help libraries? Saving time Downloading Separate passwords for each publisher Adding Downloading intermediary/gateway statistics and adding where necessary to get full usage Subtracting Taking away backfile figures from JR1a to see usage of current deal Reporting Completing SCONUL returns and other management reports
How can JUSP help libraries? Assessing value • Quickly and easily compare usage across publishers and across years • See how well titles in a deal are being used: • high use, nil and low use • Analyse trends over time • View or download reports, charts and graphs to add own cost data
How can JUSP help publishers? • Added value to customers of NESLi2 deals • Giving customers ready access to accurate usage statistics to help them analyse value of NESLi2 deals • Ensuring customers have a complete record of usage including usage through intermediaries.
How can JUSP help JISC Collections? Ready access for NESLi2 deals to: • Usage reports for individual libraries • Benchmarking reports for all libraries covering all or selected publishers • Additional information on deals taken, FTE numbers
Strategic planning with JUSP • A community resource responding to user requests for reports that will help libraries in assessing value of deals • Less time in libraries spent collecting usage statistics means more time for proper analysis • Greater understanding of what the statistics actually mean
User engagement and feedback • Emphasis is on user requirements • Close links with JUSP libraries and publishers • Always responsive to what users need • Interested in ways libraries are using JUSP • Feedback: • Individual comments and suggestions • Web surveys • Case study visits
