Counter makes it possible to get standard stats format but have to download one by one.

To make this easier we now have Sushi since 2006. We can now download these automatically.

Now with 2007 we can analyze this data and make sense of this data.

We have now:
Cost per use data
Cost per resource
Cost per subject
Decile stats

Putting usage data to work

Millennium Acq.
Order records
Invoicing and payments including subscription dates
ERM
Mill Stats
Stats come in variety of shapes and sizes

Resource Recs usage stats tab
Where you can enter dates and then export where you will get all the stat types, eg, cost per use, use, etc.

Uses both hard and soft links to order records for calculations

ERM Analysis Mode
You see total overlap
You can limit by data range
And sort by various elements
You can get subject costs but this works on scat tables of your bib recs, so you need call numbers to use this.

You should be able to use this for budget planning for next year.

You can use this for our lump sum purchases it will just calc. it across all the titles. SUSHI is now working very nicely and it should be easy to set up.

Titles per hits give you a birds eye view of how your titles are being hit, eg, most highly hits titles.
