Title Master Report |
A customizable report detailing activity at the title level (journal, book, etc.) that allows the user to apply filters and select other configuration options. |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_B1 |
Book Requests (Excluding OA_Gold) |
Reports on full-text activity for books, excluding Gold Open Access content, as Total_Item_Requests and Unique_Title_Requests. The Unique_Title_Requests provides comparable usage across book platforms. The Total_Item_Requests shows overall activity; however, numbers between sites will vary significantly based on how the content is delivered (e.g. delivered as a complete book or by chapter). |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_B2 |
Book Access Denied |
Reports on Access Denied activity for books where users were denied access because simultaneous-use licenses were exceeded or their institution did not have a license for the book. |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_B3 |
Book Usage by Access Type |
Reports on book usage showing all applicable Metric_Types broken down by Access_Type. |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_J1 |
Journal Requests (Excluding OA_Gold) |
Reports on usage of journal content, excluding Gold Open Access content, as Total_Item_Requests and Unique_Item_Requests. The Unique_Item_Requests provides comparable usage across journal platforms by reducing the inflationary effect that occurs when an HTML full text automatically displays and the user then accesses the PDF version. The Total_Item_Requests shows overall activity. |

TR_J2 |
Journal Access Denied |
Reports on Access Denied activity for journal content where users were denied access because simultaneous-use licenses were exceeded or their institution did not have a license for the title. |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_J3 |
Journal Usage by Access Type |
Reports on usage of journal content for all Metric_Types broken down by Access_Type. |
Aggregated_Full_Content |
TR_J4 |
Journal Requests by YOP (Excluding OA_Gold) |
Breaks down the usage of journal content, excluding Gold Open Access content, by year of publication (YOP), providing counts for the Metric_Types Total_Item_Requests and Unique_Item_Requests. Provides the details necessary to analyze usage of content in backfiles or covered by perpetual access agreement. Note that COUNTER reports do not provide access model or perpetual access rights details. |
