Thomson Scientific has partnered with several academic institutions worldwide to develop Journal Use Reports - a new tool designed to help understand how journal literature is being used at a given institution. By cooperating with NISO/SUSHI, MPS Technologies, and the development partners themselves, Thomson Scientific is gathering several data elements to not only provide librarians with a powerful new tool, but to help set standards for usage data harvesting in the future.
