[Eril-l] [External] How to track all usage of individual journal titles

[Patricia Dover]

I may be misunderstanding, but if you want all usage that is NOT in
aggregate databases, then I would think you only have to go to one place--
the publisher site. No matter how the user gets there, they end up at the
publisher's site. Isn't that the case? So that is just one report.  I
realize I may have this wrong. Please let me know if I am.

Hello,



I am trying to make sure I capture all usage on titles not in aggregate
databases.  For example, we have EBSCO manage our subscription to Harvard
Educational Review.  It’s discoverable in our Serials Solutions ejournal
portal.  A user would click through to get to EJS.  At that time, they
could either browse by publication date, find the article and click open in
new window.  I know EJS tracks that but if a user clicked through to the
publisher site (an option in EJS) and find full text there, I’d want to
track that.  Ultimately, I want to track all full text accesses in all
placed for titles not in aggregate databases.  I know in counter 5, I can
use total item requests but is there an easier way than to have to track in
multiple places and sum them up?



Thank you.
