Alma and Release 5.1

05 February 2025

We know a lot of libraries rely on Clarivate’s Alma product for harvesting their COUNTER reports. The Alma team has been in touch with us and provided assurances that they are on top of their migration to Release 5.1. They state that

“As of February 2025, Alma supports loading COUNTER R5.1 reports, both manually and by COUNTER API (sushi) harvesting. Alma’s Analytics tool will display the R5.1 usage information. For more information see https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Knowledge_Articles/Alma_Compliance_with_COUNTER_5.1.”

Please note that the COUNTER team is not familiar with the Alma system and are not able to help you with setting it up for R5.1 reports. Alma is not a report provider and therefore cannot undergo a COUNTER audit, nor be included in the Registry. Please contact your Alma sales rep for assistance.
