USAGE DATA FOR E-COLLECTIONS:
WHAT DO WE WANT? WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Wednesday 7 June 2000
Scientific Societies Lecture Theatre
London W1
A one-day seminar for library and publisher managers and
staff responsible for gathering, assessing and managing
statistics in the new networked library environment. It will
provide librarians and publishers with insights into what
statistics could and should be collected, and an opportunity
to discuss how this data can be utilised to better manage
the electronic library.
Electronic publishing provides, for the first time, a large-scale
environment in which the actual usage of scholarly resources
can be measured. This seminar addresses what usage data
needs to be collected to satisfy the requirements of different
constituencies and the purposes to which that usage data can
be put, as well as identifying some of the associated pitfalls.
