We receive both AncestryLibraryEdition and HeritageQuest Online statistics
on a monthly basis.  We record and tally them on a monthly and annual basis.
It is interesting to see the trends and usage rates.

I have browsed the list archives and found mention to all sorts of stats
that we collect but have not seen stats in reference to subscription
databases ie Ancestry and HQ olnine. Do you all collect these numbers? 

Also, if you have created a digital collection and/or database, do you count
the number of times the site was accessed or have another way to justify the
resources spent to create? 

thanks
John
