Dear friend,
COUNTER (Counting Online Usage of NeTworked Electronic Resources) is an initiative formed by libraries and publishers to provide consistent, credible and comparable usage reporting so as to help libraries understand how the information accessed from a variety of vendors/publishers is being used.
ref:http://librarians.iop.org/counter
The following paper entitled Evaluating the Usage of Library Networked Electronic Resources -you can access fullpaper online at http://www.libqual.org/documents/admin/PlumEvaluating%20Networked%2...
will give you an idea of evaluating the usage of e-resources.
