[Eril-l] Westlaw stats

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

Kudos Lynne. Your work with WestLaw is impressive and underscores the
effort required for normalizing usage data across COUNTER and non-COUNTER
compliant content providers.

We found the integration of WestLaw usage stats into the CELUS platform a
bit challenging as well.  Our approach is to use the “Monthly usage by
category #2” sheet of the WestLaw usage report.  By treating the categories
as proxy titles and collecting the “Total usage” per month, we are able to
compare WestLaw usage with other resources such as "Site Views" from
BloombergLaw or "Online Usage" from LexisPlus.

Since the number of non-COUNTER compliant providers is well over 100, I
thought that followers of this thread might appreciate our open
KnoweldgeBase
<https://support.celus.net/support/solutions/folders/103000394714> of
metric mappings.  There is a distinct entry in the KnoweldgeBase for each
non-COUNTER compliant provider, which contains a sample spreadsheet that
helps our subscribers format their data for proper inclusion into CELUS.
