JUSP: Getting to grips with your usage statistics Paul Meehan & Anne Reed - Jisc / Mimas

What is JUSP? The Journal Usage Statistics Portal provides a FREE “one stop shop” for libraries to access and download usage statistics from a wide range of journal publishers.

How it all started … » Interest in a one stop shop for COUNTER journal reports dates back to studies carried out in 2005 and before » Jisc Collections commissioned various parties to develop a demonstrator/prototype service for a small subset of publishers (Elsevier, Springer, OUP) and 5 libraries » JUSP was launched into service in early 2010 and has rapidly expanded ever since

Who provides JUSP? JUSP is funded by Jisc and provided by a consortium of partners: » Mimas (Jisc, formerly The University of Manchester) – day to day running, data collection, database admin, support, website, technical development » Jisc Collections – publisher agreements » Evidence Base – user support and training » Cranfield University – technical development

What does JUSP contain? » COUNTER JR1, JR1a, JR1 GOA reports for 60 publishers and 4 intermediaries » Data back to January 2009 where available » Expanding publisher list » Around 230 million individual bits of data » Data for more than 160 institutions » Title lists and deal information » Over 25 reports, charts and tables providing access to the data in a wide range of forms!

What JUSP does NOT contain » JR5 reports » Book and database reports » Cost information » Unchecked data!

Reports and features » 4 journal level reports, including JR1; gateway data; JR1 minus JR1a / JR1 GOA; journal search » 12 summary reports, including SCONUL; top titles; breakdown of usage by date range and publisher » 8 titles and deals reports including titles v deals; title lists; comparison of deals » Usage profiling report – compare your site with others in your band / groups / region / consortium

Gathering the data … » SUSHI – Standardized Usage Statistics Harvesting Initiative: machine to machine » We collect approximately 7,000 reports per month » Backdata / new publishers or sites / missing accounts / restated data » Every report is checked visually, and by automated checking software prior to loading » No reports added unless we’re happy! » Any odd data spikes or global errors reported

Benefits for libraries - 1 » One account not dozens » All report gathering done centrally » All data verified prior to loading » Costs/time savings » Reports and data presentation save a lot of time » Restated data

Benefits for libraries - 2 » Help with SCONUL return » Usage profiling » “Core” title tracking / ad hoc reports » Export reports and data in various ways » Designed for and by the library community » More clout with publishers over issues

Benefits for publishers » Data restatement » Data checked and passed back if errors » We liaise on behalf of all sites (less individual queries) » Publishers can log in and see their usage
