[ha-Safran] Judaica Librarianship celebrates one year online
Dear colleagues, A year ago, today (August 7, 2013) we launched Judaica Librarianship on the Digital Commons network (bepress), at http://ajlpublishing.org. Since then, we uploaded three back issues of the journal (Vols. 14, 15, 16/17) and published our first volume online (Vol. 18). All in all, fifty-five articles are available online of which most are freely available (Open Access). I am excited to report that articles from these volumes have been downloaded 6,775 times and the current number of unique users who visited the site-from 72 countries around the world-is 2,061. Wow! The homepage of AJL Publishing features the Paper of the Day, the Top 10 Downloads, and Recent Additions. Users can also run a full-text search on the content of all articles and receive email or RSS notifications for their specific searches. On the journal level (click Judaica Librarianship on the homepage or go to http://ajlpublishing.org/jl/), users can access additional information about the journal and search content by volume number (slider on the left-hand bar). On the article level, users can read abstracts / author information and download the content, and also share it via social media (hint... please use it to increase altmetrics) or follow the author across the Digital Commons network. Volume 19 is scheduled for publication in 2015. The deadline for submissions is December 31, 2014 (see Call for Papers on the homepage). All research and essay articles go through double-blind peer review. Happy anniversary and happy reading!

Re: [ha-Safran] Judaica Librarianship celebrates one year online
Sheryl, These figures do not include data from commercial databases but are based on data provided by bepress and Google Analytics we have on our site. Authors of Judaica Librarianship articles (digitized or born digital) also receive monthly reports from bepress on the downloads of their article/s. Users find our articles in Google/ Google Scholar and other search engines, discovery services such as Summon, Primo, or OCLC, inside the Digital Commons network (by disciplines such as Jewish Studies or Library Science, or by keywords: http://network.bepress.com/), or by direct links sent by other users. I mentioned social media since this is another way to discover scholarship and there are services who monitor them. For us to be able to capture the activity on the site, I ask that when sharing content from the journal, please send out links and not PDFs. Thanks!
