  2. Image attribution: Storage units by ahhyeah, http://www.flickr.com/photos/ahhyeah/55445362/ What is Usage Consolidation?

  3. Accepted COUNTER reports – Release 3: • Journal Report 1 – fulltext requests • Database Report 1 – searches and sessions • Database Report 2 - turnaways

  4. Brain Research – Integration into EBSCONET Subscription Management

  5. ERM Essentials & Usage Consolidationdon’t communicate

  6. Opening page of UC

  7. Configuring JSTOR

  8. Additional fields if harvest using SUSHI:

  9. Steps for loading usage data: 1) Upload file to the system (manually or via SUSHI load)

  10. Steps for loading usage data: 2) System checks validity of file 3) System matches titles to KB

  11. Why title match? so resources across different vendors can be accurately consolidated across different platforms matching ensures the usage statistics for these are applied to 1 journal and NOT 3 separate ones

  12. Steps for loading usage data: 4) Review load and work through exceptions

  13. 2 1 3

  14. Steps for loading usage data: • Mark review as complete – usage files become available through reporting

  15. Reporting options

  16. Title details sorted by publisher, title Jan 2011limit = > 100 requests

  17. Title details sorted by usage 2011limit = most 100 used titles

  21. Image attribution: Road block by annamatic3000, http://www.flickr.com/photos/annamatic3000/2140363882/ Road blocks and other challenges…. It certainly isn’t plug ‘n play: • Platform configuration Add to KB first? • Matching titles Research title history & our collection content • Manipulating COUNTER reports

  22. Image attribution: Wash outby Adam Franco, http://www.flickr.com/photos/adamfranco/2804475369/ Road blocks and other challenges…. • Waiting on fixes • Titles added to KB • Diacritics • Matching glitches: -- some titles won’t match; -- some matches aren’t retained • Cost per use • Post load data discoveries

  23. Administration in Social Work – 2011 usage in EBSCONET – estimated usage with incomplete COUNTER report load

  24. COMING DONE! Enhancements we would like to see: • Ability to set viewing preferences for results lists • Full list of available platforms in the configure section • Ability to search by ISSN when title matching • Ability to reverse an ignore decision, or modify a match • Integration with ERM Essentials • A User Community

  25. Image attribution: The thinker, by brainbrarian, http://www.flickr.com/photos/brianbrarian/201882022/ Some of our questions: • COUNTER Release 4 • Excel vs. xml vs. cvs • Zero usage titles
