[Wactclc-alma] Links related to COUNTER and SUSHI

[Guidry, Wade]

Following up on today's C1 call conversation about COUNTER reports and Alma, here are a couple of related links:

SUSHI Vendor registry: http://www.niso.org/workrooms/sushi/registry_server/

UStat Documentation (includes vendor specific SUSHI info: http://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/@api/deki/files/27092/UStat_User_Guide.pdf

As noted in our conversation, UStat was the old tool for configuring COUNTER reports for inclusion into Analytics. In the February (or coming) release of Alma, that configuration will now happen directly in Alma.

So when you see UStat, just replace that with "Alma". The main thing to see in the UStat documentation is all the specific vendor info at the end of the document.

Meanwhile, I forgot that I had done a big Alma / Analytics / SUSHI / COUNTER presentation at the Alliance Summer Meeting in 2015. That presentation is still around, and is available at:

Introduction to UStat / Wade Guidry, Robert Ferguson, Bill Kelm, and Barbara Valentine

*         Session documents<http://tinyurl.com/ustat2015>

(You can even look in the Puget Sound folder to see screenshots of all the vendors I had configured at the time. Looks like I was harvesting COUNTER data from 29 vendors as of 2015.)
