Implementation of Standard Platform for Distributing Usage Statistics of Digital Scholarly Information

Youngim Jung, Jayhoon Kim, Kwangyoung Kim, Hwanmin Kim

Abstract


Recently usage on digital scholarly information has been analyzed with various respects by various parties since the rapid expansion of digital scholarly information use and the increasing availability of large-scale log data. Nevertheless, no standard platform for distributing usage statistics of scholarly information at the national scale has been suggested so far. Therefore, this paper suggests a generalized SUSHI (Standardized Usage Statistics Harvesting Initiative) platform for distributing usage statistics of digital scholarly information at the national scale.
