The Journal Usage Statistics Portal (JUSP) service is expanding rapidly, and aims to encompass all NESLi2-participating publishers by the end of 2011, together with all UK higher-education institutions subscribing to deals from those publishers. A key part of the success of JUSP will be the implementation of the Standardized Usage Statistics Harvesting Initiative (SUSHI) protocol for automatic harvesting of usage statistics directly from publishers. This article outlines development of the service and describes how JUSP is working with Oxford University Press to deliver usage statistics to libraries. We also describe future developments at JUSP, including the creation of our own SUSHI server, and explain how new initiatives and enhancements are developed and rolled out in conjunction with our participating institutions.

Reports on the formation of one-dimensional chains, two-dimensional bilayers and a three-dimensional diamondoid architecture in hydrogen-bonded adducts of 4,4'-biphenol with 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and 1,2-diaminoethane. O atoms as single donors and double acceptors of hydrogen bonds; N atoms as double donors and single acceptors.

Presents a structural study of adducts of phenylphosphonic acid with polyamides and reports the synthesis and structures of three adducts. Phenylphosphonic acid with 4,4'-bipyridyl (1/1), piperazine (2/1) and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (2/1); Resulting sheets built from rings.

In the title two-coordinate silver compound, [Ag(C3­H9­P)2]­PF6, the cation has crystallographically imposed mirror symmetry, and approximates very closely to m ( D3 d) symmetry with fully staggered methyl groups in the solid state. The Ag atom has a nearly linear coordination geometry, with a P-Ag-P angle of 178.70 (4)°. The Ag-P bond lengths are 2.3746 (12) and 2.3783 (12) Å, which are ­significantly longer than the Au-P bond length of 2.304 (1) Å in the analogous two-coordinate gold cation. The lack of intra­molecular steric effects within the present cations containing tri­methyl­phosphine (cone angle 118°), compared with those in known cations containing trimesityl­phosphine (cone angle 212°), provides a better comparison of M-P distances and thus more conclusive evidence that Au really is smaller than Ag.
