Useful field information is identified and extracted from firewall logs and stored in relational database for future analysis and research. In case of China Pharmaceutical University Library, tests are carried out on some databases of Chinese and Foreign electronic periodicals. The results show that the methods based on extraction of firewall logs can be very effective on access statistics of target databases, and it is very helpful for policy makers to have a general idea of ordered databases'usage from macro perspective.
