6. What is JUSP?
The Journal Usage Statistics Portal provides a FREE “one stop shop”
for libraries to access and download usage statistics from a wide
range of journal publishers.
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 6

7. How it all started …
»Interest in a one stop shop for COUNTER journal reports
dates back to studies carried out in 2005 and before
»Jisc Collections commissioned various parties to develop a
demonstrator/prototype service for a small subset of
publishers (Elsevier, Springer, OUP) and 5 libraries
»JUSP was launched into service in early 2010 and has
rapidly expanded ever since
»E-books were added in February 2016
»Additional reports JR2/JR5 added mid 2016
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 7

8. Who provides JUSP?
»Jisc (formerly staff atThe University of Manchester) – day
to day running, data collection, database admin, support,
website, technical development
»Jisc Collections – publisher agreements
»Evidence Base – user evaluation, surveys and support
»Cranfield University – technical development (SUSHI)

9. What does JUSP contain - journals?
»COUNTER journal reports for 80 publishers and several
intermediaries
»Data back to January 2009 where available
»Expanding publisher list
»Around 360 million individual data entries
»Data for more than 200 institutions
»Title lists and deal information
»Over 30 reports, charts and tables providing access to the
data in a wide range of forms!04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 9

10. What JUSP does NOT contain
»Database reports … BUT!
»Cost information
»Article level stats
»Unchecked data!!!
»Data for non COUNTER compliant publishers
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 10

11. Reports and features
»journal level reports, including JR1; gateway data; JR1
minus JR1a and JR1 GOA; journal search; JR2; JR5
»summary reports, including SCONUL; top titles;
breakdown of usage by date range and publisher;
academic and publisher year data; trends over time
»titles and deals reports including titles v deals; title lists;
comparison of deals
»Usage profiling reports – compare your site with others in
your Jisc band / peer groups / region / consortium
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 11

12. How we work with the data
»SUSHI – Standardized Usage Statistics Harvesting
Initiative: machine to machine
»We collect approximately 10,000 reports per month
»Backdata / new publishers or sites / missing accounts /
restated data
»Every report undergoes visual checks, plus automated
checking software runs 20 tests prior to loading
»Any missing data or global errors reported to publishers
»No reports added unless we’re happy!!!
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 12

13. Benefits for libraries - 1
»One account not dozens
»All report gathering done centrally
»All data verified prior to loading
»Costs/time savings
»Reports and data presentation save a lot of time
»New reports take effort out of calculations
»Restated data
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 13

14. Benefits for libraries - 2
»Help with SCONUL return

22. Dashboards and KPIs
»Bar chart showing usage in
previous and current year to
date
»Part of a library dashboard for
management
»“What I get out of JUSP covers
about 80% of our e-journal
usage and only takes half a
minute”
University of Edinburgh
»Overview of key trends at
collection level
»“We also use JUSP’s ‘Titles with
the highest use’ report
(academic year) in conjunction
with reports from EBSCO, to
generate a list of the most
heavily used titles”
Leeds Beckett University

23. Practice
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 23

24. Exercises
1. An overview of usage for a publisher – using a variety
of reports to get a full picture of usage for a publisher
package
2. Identifying titles for subscription or purchase –
focusing on the JR2 but also looking atJR1
3. Evidence for journal substitutions - looking at how you
could use JUSP to review core subscriptions within a
publisher package
Topics

37. Challenges for libraries
E-book usage discussion
forum - July 2016
Report available:
http://jusp.jisc.ac.uk/news/JUSP-ebook-
discussion-forum-report-20160714.pdf
E-books usage statistics
research project
Report expected soon
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 37
Lack of
common
identifiers
Lack of
accurate title
lists
Inconsistencies
in measuring
‘use’
Time
consuming and
inefficient

38. BR3
»Check for new editions of
books that publishers
»Published sometimes replace
editions and users linked
through to content they can’t
access
Kings College London
»Adding titles to wish list
»Previously purchased vol. 1,
but noticed turnaways on vol.
2
»monitored over a couple of
years, considered as part of
wider acquisition
The Open University
04/05/2017 Getting to grips with JUSP 38

39. Comparing purchasing models
»Rather than relying on a single count, used a range of
metrics to provide a fuller picture
› number of titles purchases and accessed
› total usage, usage ranges, cost and averages
»One off exercise – a lot of work!
»Evidence to support future acquisitions
The Open University
