The Washington University School of Medicine's Bernard Becker LIbrary
would be pleased to help you test this. We have worked with other vendors
in the past to beta test products (Ovid Technologies, Inc. and Teton are
just two). Let me know what you would need. Thanks,

Subject:  RE: Online journal statistics

At Blackwell Science and Munksgaard we recognise the importance of sharing
usage data with libraries.  We are currently developing a usage reporting
system for our full-text online journal service - Synergy.  Institutions
will be able to remotely download usage data for their sites which goes
beyond the minimum standards laid down in the ICOLC usage guidelines.  We
would like to hear from any librarians that would be willing to act as
beta testers, helping us to roll this out in early 2000.
