Abstract: The complexity of usage reporting continues to increase, driven by the growth of Open Access publishing models and a more diverse range of stakeholders interested in understanding the usage and impact of published content. In the first part of this presentation, Katherine Swart of the Hekman Library at Calvin University reviewed and compared leading products that use Standardized Usage Statistics Harvesting Initiative (SUSHI) protocol to harvest usage reports and provide libraries with analytics on the usage of their e-resources. In the second part of this presentation, Tim Lloyd of LibLynx and Tricia Miller of Annual Reviews analyzed how evolving Open Access publishing and distribution models are changing usage reporting, how different stakeholders want to use usage data to evaluate impact and value, and how our community is grappling with and developing standardized usage data sharing practices.
