摘要

摘要本案例研究考察了与数据库使用情况报告有关的COUNTER 5指标，旨在深入了解这些指标在供应商平台中的作用。通过模拟两个主要数据库中的搜索过程，作者能够将其机构的COUNTER 5数据库主报告中的数字置于上下文中。研究发现，尽管COUNTER标准明确定义了Release 5指标——搜索、调查和请求，但供应商平台设计对使用情况的实际统计方式有直接影响，从而影响数据库使用情况报告的结果。

Understanding COUNTER 5 metrics in context: a case study on vendor database usage reports

Abstract This case study examines the COUNTER 5 metrics pertaining to database usage reports, aiming to gain insights into how the metrics function within a vendor platform. By simulating a search process in two major databases, the authors were able to contextualize the numbers in their institution’s COUNTER 5 Database Master Reports. The study finds that even though the Release 5 metrics – searches, investigations, and requests – are clearly defined by the COUNTER standard, the vendor platform design has a direct impact on how the usage is actually counted, thus shaping the outcome of a database usage report.
