4. JR1 including gateway and host intermediaries
remember that for some publishers this usage is not included in the JR1

Use this report if you want to view usage of titles in your current deal separately from those in the backfile collection
Use this report if you want to view total usage of your current deal, minus backfiles and including intermediaries
Sort by JR1 or JR1a to see which titles are most used in your current deal or backfile collection
