15. Why Is This Important For Publishers? “Statistics showed that the usage of Academic Search Elite has more than doubled since adding the records into the OPAC, from an average of 5,067 to 11,176 a month.” – Jina Wakimoto, CSU-Northridge “Now that SUSHI has enabled ERM software to efficiently retrieve COUNTER usage statistics using SUSHI on a e- journal basis, the need for per-e-journal costs will become even more acute, because libraries will rightly demand the capability of calculating cost-per-use numbers in a meaningful way.” – Ted Koppel, Ex-Libris
