Friendly Guide to Release 5 for Librarians

Hot of the press, written by Tasha Mellins-Cohen, this guide will help librarians prepare for Release 5 of the COUNTER Code of Practice. This publication provides a wealth of information about the new Metrics, Master Reports and Standard Views. It also provides a helpful section which maps the key Release 4 reports to their Release 5 counterparts.

You will also find several user scenarios, that come together in a set of COUNTER Release 5 reports.
