RePEc in May 2009

It seems that every month we have some new big number to announce. This time we have four. First, RePEc has now information about 3/4 million items of research. Second, our email notification service NEP has now sent 500 weekly NEP-ALL reports (the ones containing all new papers). Then, the CitEc project has now managed to extract references from 200,000 items, and thus find citations to 250,000 items within RePEc.

New participants providing bibliographic information about their publications are: Arizona State University (II), Baltic International Centre for Economic Policy Studies, University of Pitesti, Warwick Business School, University of Economics Prague, Technical University of Lisbon, Gestión Joven, Anadolu University, ISCTE, Polish Academy of Sciences, George Washington University (II)

In terms for traffic, LogEc registered 823,795 file downloads and 2,916,764 abstract views. Last month, it was 917,870 respectively 3,149,903. We mention this because these numbers had to be corrected after one week of IDEAS traffic was found missing, but too late for last month’s report. In any case, all statistics are available at LogEc.

Finally, the list of thresholds we have passed during last month is the following:
125000000 abstract views on IDEAS
750000 items listed in RePEc
250000 items cited within RePEc
200000 items with references extracted
500 NEP-ALL reports
