We ask our users NOT to reshelve the journals they use in house (these do not circulate), but rather leave them on a cart labelled for reshelving.
The shelvers log their count into the journal record of our ILS in an internal note.
This is by no means an accurate count, because some users reshelve, even though we ask them not to.

Subject: [Non-DoD Source] [SERIALST] Usage statistics for current issues on open shelves
I have been asked to gather usage statistics for current unbound issues which are on open shelves. Does anyone have any good ideas for how this might be done? We still have around 800 titles that have current issues in print.
