Sorry for the double-post but I just checked my COP5.1 data and at least a few vendors are providing chapter data in their IRs for 5.1.</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
They are data_type = 'Book_Segment'. and the Item is the chapter title and Parent_Title is the book title (other Parent fields add more data).</div>

Among UPEI's vendors, these are the ones I can find so far this year. Sadly, none of our largest ebook platforms are providing this data (yet).</div>

It included this interesting claim: "So, instead of just counting the whole book, librarians are focusing more on how individual chapters or sections are used. This gives a much clearer picture of which parts of a book are most popular."</div>
