[Eril-l] COUNTER4 report harvesting?

I received a sales call from MPS Insight for Libraries last week.  They are offering service to libraries.  It sounded like they might have purchased ScholarlyStats.  I can forward their brochure if you would like.  I understood him to say that they do collect all COUNTER reports offered, but not sure at what cost.  I agree that these other types of reports would be very useful to import and have asked Ebsco to offer that as part of their service.  So far, they have not done this.

Subject: [Eril-l] COUNTER4 report harvesting?

Hello, all.
I would like to find a service or tool that will harvest for us all available COUNTER4 reports from all of our compliant vendors. But so far I've the tools/services I know of, including Proquest's and EBSCO's as well as a couple of open source options, only get a few of the reports, most notably JR1 but missing the very important JR2 and JR5.
This might actually be a problem with the SUSHI standard being out of date - I'm a bit fuzzy on that.

Does anyone have a SUSHI or other solution for harvesting ALL of the COUNTER4 reports from your vendors aside from doing it manually?

Thanks!
