Springer Nature delays release of COUNTER 5 reports

March 2019 | ​​​​​​​In recent months we have started to merge  Springer and Nature accounts together to better serve our customers.  This work is still ongoing and not completely finished due to its complexity. This is causing a delay in releasing COUNTER 5 reports on the Springer Nature Librarian Portal and via SUSHI. Therefore, we will not be able to make these available in March as previously communicated.

Springer Nature works towards becoming COUNTER 5 compliant

February 2019 | ​​​​​​​In January 2019, COUNTER released its fifth Code of Practice (COUNTER 5) which “focuses on improving the clarity, consistency, and comparability of usage reporting." As a result, we have spent the last few months working towards becoming COUNTER 5 compliant and would like to share an update on our progress.
