Usage Bibliometrics (Downloads and COUNTER)
Usage bibliometrics measures the impact of scholarly works from how often they are downloaded and viewed rather than how often they are cited. Drawing on server and publisher logs standardized through the COUNTER code of practice, it turns raw access events into impact indicators such as the usage factor. The MESUR project led by Johan Bollen and Herbert Van de Sompel was pivotal: their 2008 work demonstrated usage-based impact metrics built from large-scale usage logs, and their 2009 principal component analysis of thirty-nine impact measures showed that scientific impact is multidimensional, with usage metrics occupying a distinct region of the space from citation metrics. Usage signals accrue almost immediately and reflect a far larger readership than the subset of authors who eventually cite, making them an early and broad complement to citation analysis, provided the logs are carefully standardized.
