  Enhanced Usage Statistics — for Administrators

   
 

The expanded capabilities of the New WilsonWeb, include the following advantages:

  • ICOLC Compliance

  • COUNTER Compliance

  • Expanded Reporting Capabilities

  • Optional Graphical Representation of Statistics

  • Improved Security

  • Automatic Email Reporting Option

  • Expanded Reporting Levels—Consortia, Site, User Groups.

  • Improved Accuracy in Reports

Important Note: Your usage report numbers could be positively impacted in the following ways.

WilsonWeb is much better at helping users to focus their searches and find results quickly. You can expect to find that usage statistics may go down dramatically in some cases due to searching and navigational efficiencies inherent in the new system. For example:

  • Turn-away numbers are likely to be lower because users will typically be online for shorter time periods, freeing up your system for the next user.

  • Expect your search numbers for Submitted Searches and Database Searches to decrease dramatically as users become more proficient in finding the information they need with the New WilsonWeb.

You can be certain that with WilsonWeb each number reported electronically is totally accurate and will not require any manual manipulations on your part.

We are confident that the enhanced WilsonWeb statistics reporting will better help you understand how your electronic resources from Wilson are being used and provide a reliable aid for planning.
