Hi, Cynthia,

I'm sorry to say that isn't going to answer your question.  No_license is sometimes referred to as Turnaways.  To quote from The Friendly Guide to Release 5 for Librarians<https://www.projectcounter.org/friendly-guide-release-5-librarians/> ,  "No_License': counted when a user is unable to access a unique content item because their institution does not have a license to the content."

I don't know of any COUNTER report that will give you a quick answer.

Linda

Hi all -  My director asked me to get a report on what had been accessed since March from the JSTOR unowned complimentary collections, and I discovered that in the C5 Title Report, there is a metric "No License".  Does this metric correspond to Requests for unowned titles?  Because the titles listed here are in the complimentary collections.

But I think I can't trust that conclusion, because I see the title Plains Anthropologist, which to my knowledge we do not hold in any of our JSTOR collections, but it shows up in Requests, not in NO_License.

I have spoken to JSTOR support, and they were going to make a report for me, but I didn't request it soon enough to make my director's budget meeting.

Anyone have any insight about this?

Thanks,
