PIRUS2 es un proyecto cooperativo que incluye editores y respositorios para desarrollar una serie de normas, protocolos y procesos que permitan a los editores a los repositorios y otras organizaciones generar y compartir estadísticas fiables del uso de los artículos que contienen. Está avalado por el JISC (Joint Information Systems Committee)
Se basa en normas previamente establecidas por COUNTER y en los resultados del proyecto PIRUS (Publisher and Institutional Repository Usage Statistics) que demuestra que es técnicamente posible crear y consolidar estadísticas de uso para artículos individuales utilizando datos de repositorios y editores.

PIRUS 2 builds on the standards already established by COUNTER and on the results of the original PIRUS (Publisher and Institutional Repository Usage Statistics) project, which demonstrated that it is technically feasible to create record and consolidate usage statistics for individual articles using data from repositories and publishers, despite the diversity of organizational and technical environments in which they operate. Until now the most granular level at which COUNTER has established standards for the reporting of usage is at the individual journal, database, or book level. A number of recent developments, however, mean that it may now be appropriate to give a higher priority to developing a COUNTER standard for the recording, reporting and consolidation of usage statistics at the individual article level. PIRUS 2 will seek to meet the following main objectives: a.. Develop a suite of free, open source programmes to support the generation and sharing of COUNTER compliant usage data and statistics that will cover individual items in publisher, aggregator, institutional and subject repositories b.. Develop a prototype article level Publisher/Repository usage statistics service c.. Define a core set of standard usage statistics reports that publishers and repositories could produce for internal and external consumption d.. Assess the costs for publishers and repositories of generating the required usage reports, as well as the costs of any central clearing house/houses; investigate how these costs could be allocated between stakeholders PIRUS 2 is lead by Mimas (The University of Manchester) and Cranfield University; the other primary partners are COUNTER, Oxford University Press and CrossRef. Oxford University, Southampton University and other Institutional Repositories will also participate in PIRUS 2, together with publishers, subject repositories and related projects in the UK, EU and USA. Work on PIRUS 2 commenced in October 2009 and the final report will be published in December 2010.
