How libraries are using JUSPA. To what extent are JUSP reports used on a regular reporting basis? The

recent Survey details 60% on a weekly or monthly basis…

– How we use JUSP… as necessary, monthly or quarterly • SCONUL usage report• Usage Profiling report• Annual usage by publisher• Annual e-resources report• Annual subscription review – three year average provided• Ad hoc enquiries – historical data, access queries, etc, etc

How libraries are using JUSPWhere we were before JUSP…

• 170 e-resources• Split years calculated for SCONUL report• Tricky tracking relative cells every year – watch out for errors!• No EBSCOhost EJS usage since Aug 2009 when a SUSHI server

was required (ie: ~25K p.a. downloads lost)

How libraries are using JUSPSince the inception of JUSP…

40 publishers’ data takes care of itself – a saving of 1-2 working weeks EBSCOhost EJS data available again (partially, ~10-15K) Usage profiling with graphics possible for a dozen publishers Facilitates SCONUL reporting Facilitates year-on-year comparisons Facilitates answering ad hoc queries

How libraries are using JUSPB. How do you manage reporting via JUSP and what isn’t on JUSP?• How do you combine JUSP data with other usage data – We are setting up

360 COUNTER as part of our belt and braces approach as well as scheduling monthly reports and requesting usage from publishers via email – it all goes into one usage spreadsheet, for use elsewhere…

How libraries are using JUSPB. How do you manage reporting via JUSP and what isn’t on JUSP?• How do you combine JUSP data with other usage data

• We are setting up 360 COUNTER as part of our belt and braces approach (including scheduling monthly reports delivered via email, pulling our own data from web admin interfaces, and requesting usage from publishers via email)

• We also take usage reports from 360 Link (for sessions, and to prove if something is being used if there aren’t any COUNTER or other usage reports available) and from Summon to try and complete the picture

How libraries are using JUSPB. How do you manage reporting via JUSP and what isn’t on JUSP?• 360 COUNTER doesn’t look quite as good as JUSP yet…

How libraries are using JUSPC. How do you let others know what JUSP is?• Do you share JUSP data with other library staff?• Annual report describes how usage has varied during the past year• Includes top 5 headline figures for e-resources (full text e-journal and e-

book databases, A&I databases by sessions and searches)• Analysis of trends including impact of Discovery (Summon) on usage• Included in part in Library’s Annual Report

How libraries are using JUSPC. How do you let others know what JUSP is?• How do you explain how JUSP works and what it can do?• Monthly JUSP Newsletter forwarded to Academic Liaison and Library

Management Team• Annual and Profile Reports circulated• Ad hoc queries supported with JUSP data• Username and password shared with interested parties

How libraries are using JUSPD. How do you link to finance records?• How do you work out cost per download?• Annual usage maintained on master subscriptions spreadsheet• If no usage is available we will calculate cost per session or search as an

alternative measure

How libraries are using JUSP Next Steps• Development of an e-Strategy as part of the revised Collection

Development Policy• Based on OCLC’s strategy document “Meeting the e-Resources Challenge”• Include usage statistics so reliant on JUSP• Hope to include ERM (reliant on KB+ and other related resources)• Demonstrate Return on Investment and Value for Money• Include 6 TERMS workflow, which puts usage at its heart • 6 TERMS wiki: http://eprints.hud.ac.uk/19461/ • 6 TERMS blog: https://library3.hud.ac.uk/blogs/terms/
