[edit] Types of Reports
The LexisNexis usage reporting and analysis system provides reports that comply with the Project Counter Code of Practice 3. As a database aggregator, rather than a journals service, LexisNexis is required by the COUNTER standard to provide the Database 3 (DB3) report, which shows searches and sessions by database, and the Consortium 2 report.
LexisNexis does not provide JR1 and Consortium 1 reports showing retrievals by publication title. These reports are not required and not appropriate for aggregator databases.
LexisNexis provides additional data on document retrievals by database, with detail LexisNexis "library" and "file" classification. These data are available through the Analytical Tools described below.
[edit] SUSHI
The new system will support the SUSHI standard for automated delivery of usage data.
Support for SUSHI is expected to be added to the system shortly.
[edit] Products Covered
Usage reports are provided for the following products, which have been developed for the U.S. higher education, secondary education, and public library markets.
- LexisNexis Academic
- LexisNexis Library Express
- LexisNexis Scholastic
- LexisNexis State Capital
Other products may be covered for customers outside the U.S.
[edit] Dates Covered
Monthly data on searches and retrievals will be provided for January 2008 forward. Data on session counts were not captured by LexisNexis before January 2009 and so are not available for 2008.
[edit] Update Frequency
In accordance with COUNTER guidelines, monthly data will uploaded to the system prior to end of the subsequent month. In practice, updates may occur as early as the 10th of the month.
