            Abstract

            The industry standard for usage metrics, COUNTER has historically been seen as the preserve of subscription publishers and acquisitions librarians. In this talk we will cover the ways in which COUNTER metrics can and should be used with Open Access materials, the differences between books and other types of content, and why chapter-level metadata is critical to accurate metrics. We’ll also touch on how usage metrics fit within the wider suite of impact and ROI measures.
