Open access book usage data – how close is COUNTER to the other kind?

Listed in DANS Data Station Physical and Technical Sciences

Since its launch in 2010, the OAPEN Library has made peer reviewed books and chapters available in open access In October 2020, the collection had grown to 13,000 books and over 600 chapters.

Description

Starting June 2013, COUNTER release 4 compliant usage data of the OAPEN Library was provided by IRUS-UK. Since then, the 10 million downloads mark was passed in the first quarter of 2020.

In April 2020, the OAPEN Library moved to a new platform, based on DSpace 6, the open source repository system. Among other things, this allowed us to monitor all events happening on the platform using Google Analytics. During the same period, IRUS-UK started working on the deployment of release 5 of the COUNTER Code of Practice.

For us, this is a good moment to compare these widely used usage metrics. By describing the OAPEN Library usage data from Google Analytics (GA) and COUNTER release 5 (R5) we aim to better understand the differences. Date Submitted: 2020-11-04
