 +Google Analytics is the State Library’s primary method of tracking site visitation. When applied to the SLQ Wiki subdomain,  page views and sessions are not accurately reported  ((based on a manual comparison of server access logs (filtering for bots/SLQ injection attacks/crawlers/etc) and GA page views.  Primary cause is client-side disabled first-party cookies and/or javascript by use of adblocking browser extensions )), and there is no capability to report on downloads as per data dictionary requirements. This issue has been discussed with marketing and web services, with a solution developed by the Applied Creativity team, which was approved, then used to report quarterly numbers. However, the data gathering process was manual, and resulted in unacceptable delays in reporting, so an automated process was developed.
