The possibilities are endless
• Download the data from http://openurl.ac.uk/doc/data/data.html
• Figure out how to open the files• Look at usage just for your institution• Check out Tony Hirst’s info on handling big data sets at
http://blog.ouseful.info/2011/06/04/playing-with-large-ish-csv-files-and-using-them-as-a-database-edina-openurl-logs/ and a visualisation using Gource at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8XYEfNdxvk&feature=youtu.be
• And Mark van Harmelen playing with the data set at http://hedtek.com/2011/playing-with-openurl-router-data/
