[Christian Zimmermann]

Traffic on RePEc services continues to be high, establishing a record for 
the third month in a row for abstracts. But tis streak is expected to come 
to an end, as Summer traffic is typically lower. All in all, we counted 
693,457 file downloads and 2,836,840 abstract views.

During the month of May, the following institutions joined RePEc with new 
archives:
University of Hamburg, Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca, CIDE, 
University College Dublin, Nanyang Technological University, Romanian 
Journal of Regional Science, University of Central Missouri, University of 
Luxembourg, Queensland University of Technology.

In terms of thresholds passed, you should notice a few very significant 
ones:
90,000,000 cumulative abstract views for working papers
20,000,000 cumulative downloads through IDEAS
1,000,000 cumulative downloads through NEP
300,000 abstracts available
180,000 working papers available online
