This study will look at how this complex set of demands is played out in one particular sphere, the decision process around deselecting dated print monographs or relegating them to storage collections ...

Funding acknowledgements found in scientific publications have been used to study the impact of funding on research since the 1970s. ...
However, no broad scale indexation of that paratextual element was done until 2008, when Thomson Reuters Web of Science started to add funding acknowledgement information to its bibliographic records. ...

Citations to publications captured by Overton were found to originate in scientific advice documents, rather than in legislative or executive records. ...
Using the new policyoriented database Overton, matched to Scopus, logistic regression was used in assessing this relationship in publications from FP7- and H2020-supported projects. ...

Usage of field-normalized citation scores is a bibliometric standard. ...
The main policy implication is that normalized citation impact scores or rankings based on them should not be compared without deeper knowledge of the classification systems that were used to derive these ...

This chapter discusses altmetrics (short for "alternative metrics"), an approach to uncovering previously-invisible traces of scholarly impact by observing activity in online tools and systems. ...
I argue that citations, while useful, miss many important kinds of impacts, and that the increasing scholarly use of online tools like Mendeley, Twitter, and blogs may allow us to measure these hidden ...
However, the lack of perfect or even strong correlation suggests that this altmetric, too, captures influence not reflected in the citation record. ...

While there are frequent mentions in the literature of the IFS as an indicator of the impact or quality of scholars' work, little empirical work has been published regarding the validity of such use. ...
Results: The relationship between journals' impact factor scores and the actual impact of articles published in those journals (predictive validity) was r = .41 (short term) and r = .42 (long term). ...
Europeans were significantly more likely to indicate usage of the IFS in these ways. This is an indirect measure of actual use of the IFS. ...

We consistently analyze core literature in five diverse fields, in order to probe the usage of titles as a disciplinary identity building tool. ...
This suggests that authors try to comply with the norms set in their fields. However, these norms are not fixed in time. Over the decades, the practices have changed, some of them quite abruptly. ...
authors with a lot of collaborators tend to work on a smaller set of topics, as a group, than the ones who tend to work in smaller collaborations or alone. ...

The main result of this study shows that readership scores are more effective (in terms of precision/recall values) than journal citation scores to identify highly cited publications across all fields ...

But, just as the JIF is not recommended as a proxy for the "citedness" of a paper, a publisher rating is also not recommended as a proxy for the impact of an individual book. ...
National publisher lists are used instead to account for the general "quality" of books, leading to institutional rewards. ...

In particular, we consider key concepts of a minimal DL: (with regard to efficiency), cost of migration (with respect to preservability), and number of service failures (to assess reliability). ...
