Hello,

Please how do I get basic statistics of the total (count) items (books) in the DSpace digital library.

Thank you.

Since all items in DSpace should have a title and issue date (enforced by submission forms), you can take a look at the total number of items in these "Browse By" indices:

or

"Now showing items 1-20 of 63".

This is certainly a good ballpark number approach. If a site has numerous items withdrawn or marked as private, those might be worth checking as well despite not being publicly served.

Hi Olusoga,

You can also check the wonderful work of Andrea Schweer here: https://github.com/lconz-irr/CAUL-IRR-Stats

Unfortunately based from my experience, this will only work for versions 5x.

Here are the available stats that you can extract using this tool:

  1. Number of complete works (1) held in the institutional repository/ies, available externally (open access)
  2. Number of complete works (2) held in the institutional repository/ies for internal access only (authorized user access or dark archive)
  3. Total number of complete works (3) held in the IR (1 and 2)
  4. Number of items (4) held in the institutional repository/ies (metadata records only)
  5. Total number of metadata records added during the year
  6. Total number of complete works added during the year
  7. Total number of items held in the institutional repository/ies (3 and 4)
  8. Number of accesses to complete works in the institutional repository during the year
  9. Number of accesses to metadata record items in the institutional repository during the year
  10. Total number of accesses to items held in the institutional repository (8 and 9).
Hope this helps.

Best regards,
euler
