Abstract

In this study, concept and importance of e-journal usage statistics has been examined and Journal Usage Factor project performed by Project COUNTER group has been investigated. Advantages and limits of usage statistics generated by library, link resolver and publisher have been clarified. By analyzing various errors and problems included in publisher-generated usage statistics, we conclude that the current usage statistics is not completely credible yet.

본 논문에서는 최근 연구가 활성화되고 있는 전자저널 이용통계의 개념과 필요성에 대해 알아보고 COUNTER 그룹에 의해 진행 중인 이용 지수 프로젝트(Journal Usage Factor Project)의 동향을 파악하였다. 또 생성 주체별 이용통계 데이터가 가지는 장점 및 한계점을 살펴보았고, 31개 출판사의 실제 이용통계 데이터를 분석하여 다양한 오류와 문제 유형을 발견함으로써 출판사 생성 이용통계 데이터의 품질이 완전히 신뢰할만한 수준이 아님을 지적하였다.
