From: Heather Reid <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2016 07:38:50 -0500 Hi: We are in the process of assembling usage statistics for our online databases for the period 2012 to present. We are noticing a significant drop off in apparent usage for all of our Gale databases from 2013 to 2014. This makes me think that perhaps the vendor changed something about how they "count" somewhere in that time period. I can -- and will -- reach out to Gale about this, but also was curious to find out if any other libraries have noticed a similar phenomenon? Thanks for your help, Heather -- Heather Reid Dean, Library & Learning Resources Berklee College of Music [log in to unmask] 617-747-2603 office 978-821-1711 cell
