- Usage Data for Electronic Resources: A Comparison between Locally Collected and Vendor-Provided Statistics. Duy, Joanna Vaughan, Liwen Academic Libraries Comparative Analysis Data Analysis Data Collection Higher Education Information Sources Information Technology Library Statistics Online Systems Vendors Web Sites Vendor-provided electronic resource usage statistics are not currently standardized across vendors. This study investigates the feasibility of using locally collected data to check the reliability of vendor-provided data. Vendor-provided data were compared with local data collected from North Carolina State University (NCSU) Libraries' Web servers. Findings indicate the two types of data correlate well in terms of use patterns, but actual usage values differ for many products. (Author/AEF)
