(Worth a read)
"....One of the core ideas behind Mendeley has always been to use the huge
amounts of data our users are uploading to make science more open and
transparent. The Mendeley Institutional Edition creates a data dashboard
on an institutional level: it tells a university exactly which journals
are being read by their researchers, which lets librarians optimize
their journal subscriptions and provide a better service to their
researchers. It also enables the university to track their research
output – what journals are their faculty publishing in, and how is this
research being taken up in the rest of academia and in the outside
world? Moreover, when a university subscribes to the Mendeley
Institutional Edition, all of their students and faculty get upgraded to
Mendeley premium accounts – we have now started to roll this out at
places like Stanford University...."
