RePEc services continue to see increases in traffic that we find hard to believe, with 371,613 file downloads and 6,441,286 abstract views in December 2025. But more on that below. We welcomed a few new RePEc archives over that month: Lutsk National Technical University, International Emerging Scholars Society (IESS), EconSciences Library, University of Linz (II). Now regarding last year as a whole. Two points marked the year: First, many of our sites are getting rewritten from scratch, an initiative that is going to be completed in a few months. Second, we have struggled with AI bots, initially when they overwhelmed our servers with requests as they were trying to collect our information, and then they started generating traffic that became difficult to distinguish from human traffic, which messes with our statistics. More details are provided in a recently updated, separate blog post <https://blog.repec.org/2025/11/10/ai-issues-in-repec/>. Of course, RePEc continues to grow, thanks to 48 new RePEc archives and our existing publication contributors, over 2000 of them. Some highlights: 220 new working paper series, 70,000 new working papers, 260 new journals, 260,000 new journal articles, 56,000 new book chapters, 7,000 new books, 200 new software components, and 2,600 new registered authors, with all authors adding 108,000 works to their profiles. References were extracted from 175,000 new documents, 4,200 NEP reports were issued, and users made 19,000 amendments to the RePEc Genealogy. Finally, 29,000,000 abstracts were viewed on the reporting websites, who facilitated 4,200,000 document downloads. For 2026, we expect to conclude the code rewrite and then start again with introducing new features. We will for sure have to deal with artificial intelligence, at least as much as last year, mostly as a nuisance. And we look forward to continue serving the economics profession with free services.
