| Abstract: | The usage of e-resources is one of the most important parameters to
judge effectiveness of a consortium. Manual downloading and analysis of usage
statistics is a time-consuming process for a consortium like UGC-INFONET
Digital Library Consortium having more than 180 core members. COUNTER and SUSHI
standards have the potential to ease the work of a consortium administrator by
minimizing the time involved in manual downloading of usage statistics allowing
more time for analyzing the usage statistics for better decision making. The
article gives a brief of the implication of SUSHI for creating a usage
statistics portal at the INFLIBNET Centre for monitoring the usage of the
member universities.
