About
The FDLP PURL Usage Report enables libraries to create monthly reports of the usage of GPO Persistent Uniform Resource Locators (PURLs) at their library. Reports are based off IP address and hostname/domain name patterns chosen by library staff.
For libraries that have configured their report, a monthly notification email is distributed when the report is available. Reports are available for 12 months.
