============================================================= === Usage Statistics Plugin === Version: 1.0 ============================================================= About ----- This plugin implements usage statistics logging and processing, and also default reports to retrieve statistics related to the journal i.e. press, articles i.e. monographs and article i.e. monograph files. Usually an usage statistic event is a page view (journal i.e. press catalog index page, abstract article i.e. monograph page, etc) or a file download (article i.e. monograph file downloads). This plugin can also log statistics aggregated by the geo location of the user. To activate this option, take a look at the INSTALLATION section of this document.
