EBSCOadmin automatically collects usage statistics on EBSCOhost usage
within your library system or consortium. They can be used to measure how often
titles and databases are searched.
Title, database, session and link activity statistics can be collected for
specific time periods (monthly or annually), limited to a specific data field,
and sorted. These reports can be viewed or emailed in HTML, Tab Delimited or
Comma Delimited format.

OCLC
Login to the usage statistics service using your library's nine-digit FirstSearch
authorization number and administrative password. To access your authorization
number and password, please contact Rita Baladad
(rita@minitex.umn.edu / 612-626-8252 /
800-462-5348) or Mary Parker (m-park1@umn.edu
/ 612-624-1024 / 800-462-5348).
Monthly reports are included for individual accounts. Each month, OCLC adds another
month to the statistics service. After the service includes 25 months of reports,
OCLC will remove the earliest month when adding a new month. Thus, the service
always includes the latest 25 months of reports.
Overview reports combine data for all databases, including the number of sessions,
searches and full-text documents used. They also provide data about the actual
number of simultaneous users of the account. Other reports provide data about each
database, including the number of searches and full-text documents used.
