• "Totals" are gross URL's accessed, and a sum of Queries, Documents, and Other.
• "Query" : Enter a search , e.g. Why is the sky blue?, and a hitlist appears. This counts as one query hit.
• "Documents" : Articles from Encyclopaedia Britannica that you click on once you begin your search (from the hitlist), plus articles selected when you navigate through the index, Britannica Book Of the Year articles, Dictionary definitions, etc.
• "Other": Hits to the Home Page, images, Help, What's new, Hapax Legomena, etc. "Other" has significantly increased for most institutions since the September release of Britannica Online version 98.1. This release tripled the number of photos and illustrations in Britannica Online. The addition of images to the Home Page will also increase this count.
