The book is slanted towards education but the ideas and suggestions in it could appeal to a wider audience. Although written primarily with American readers in mind (the specific references tend towards American Web sites) this is not to discount the relevance of the book for an international audience. http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue/46/mchugh-rvw/ Wed, 08 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue/46/mchugh-rvw/ The sub-title of this book provides a broader explanation for those who may be puzzled by the use of the term "e-metrics". The book suggests that to reach a real understanding of how digital and virtual library collections are used and who is using them, generating data on a local level as well as employing vendor-generated data which conforms, or otherwise, to emerging standards, is important for libraries. Content OverviewThe book starts with a preface which summarises its contents, allowing the reader to choose between 3 sections - What e-metrics are; Why they are required by libraries; How libraries can build local collections of e-metrics data.
