IEEE Announces COUNTER-Compliant Usage Statistics
|
March 2006 – As of 1 January 2006, usage statistics for all IEEE online subscription package subscribers conform to the COUNTER standards and protocols governing the recording and exchange of online usage data. COUNTER refers to an international set of standards and protocols governing the recording and exchange of online usage and data. With these new standards added to the IEEE online subscription package, IEEE subscribers benefit from a more calculated retrieval of information while researching online. The new COUNTER standards provide universities and libraries with a better understanding of how the information they purchase is utilized, and will allow publishers and industry professionals to see how the information products they circulate are accessed by costumers online. |
