- Thread-topic: Statistics for ETD downloads/useage
Hello all,
I'm attending a meeting in the next couple of days with the hope of encouraging a faculty within the University to 'seriously encourage' electronic deposit of PhD theses.
I wanted to go armed with some download/hit figures for the items we already have on our repository. We have been running a pilot for a couple of years but want to extend the service and have more schools depositing.
Unfortunately we have been beset by some, aherm, 'technical' problems and I can not generate stats in time for the meeting.
Does anyone know of/have anything which I could use as a broad comparison. I've seen some American stats online, but would like something in the UK if possible.
I'd be very grateful if anyone had anything I could just point to.
With many thanks.
Paula
