Abstract
This 2015 study uses web analytics, subject term analysis, and download statistics to gauge the presence, visibility, and popularity of University of Illinois digital collections on the web. With a grounding in current best practices, it provides a pragmatic methodology for the institutional analysis of digital collections with an eye to strategic digital collection development.
