Date: Feb 7, 2018 Speaker: Caroline Muglia, Co-Associate Dean for Collections and Technical Services; and Head, Resource Sharing and Collection Assessment, USC Libraries Overview: Scholarship is increasingly being created, disseminated, and measured on digital and social platforms. If Twitter exchanges, Facebook “saves,” and YouTube hits are the new metrics for tracking scholarship, how are we measuring societal and educational impact and outreach? How can researchers display their research impact using social media on promotion and tenure dossiers? This webinar will discuss altmetrics, alternative scholarly metrics that measure the impact and use of scholarship. We will focus on PlumX, the tool used at USC, which combines traditional and new metrics to paint a comprehensive portrait of your scholarly output and its reach in various communities and with different stakeholders.

- 12. What is altmetrics? Altmetrics is a broad term that encapsulates the collection of multiple digital indicators related to scholarly work. These indicators are derived from activity and engagement among diverse stakeholders and scholarly outputs in the research ecosystem, including the public sphere.

- 13. How does Altmetrics work? ● Researchers leave “data exhaust” when they research and engage with social media ● PlumX mines the exhaust and gathers metrics ● Compares LIKE with LIKE
- 14. What is “data exhaust?”
- 15. Trends in promotion and tenure dossiers ● Societal impact ○ Citations to research in public policy documents, references in patents, and citations to research in various sources ● Educational impact ○ Articles and books in syllabi, data and other learning objects ● Public engagement and outreach ○ Press coverage, social media buzz, and downloads and views of scholarship and public dissemination of science

- 27. Altmetrics can show you the money Big swing in funding from year to year Competition for research grants Showing clinical impact
- 28. In 2012, NIH promised to put aside 10% of their funds for AIDS research. In 2015, $3B was reduced to $65M put towards AIDS research.

- 30. “Over the next year, I will lead a dedicated, combined effort by governments, private industry, researchers, physicians, patients, and philanthropies to target investment, coordinate across silos, and increase access to information for everyone in the cancer community.” -President Barack Obama in “A Moonshot to Cure Cancer,” January 12, 2016

- 48. Common FAQs (with some answers)
- 49. Gaming metrics Question: Traditional metrics can be gamed. How can this be avoided in altmetrics? Answer: ▪ Transparency of metrics ▪ PlumX doesn’t provide a score, but instead provides a data visualization ▪ No calculations on top of things and then hiding what went into it Example: Twitter!
- 50. Retractions Question: How does PlumX account for retracted articles? Answer: ▪ Plum captures that the article was retracted ▪ Also captures the activity around them ▪ Since Plum doesn’t offer a score, it’s not impacted
- 51. Health policy Question: Where are the altmetrics around health policy (the other side of clinical translational science)? Answer: ▪ They are working on it! They are in the stage of figuring out how to group the altmetrics data (comparing LIKE with LIKE) Stay tuned!

NIH Biosketch “contributions to science” ● Historical background that frames the scientific problem ● Influence of the finding/s on the progress of science or the application to health or technology ● Your specific role in the described work ● List of up to four peer-reviewed publications or other non- publication research outputs for each contribution

Notes de l'éditeur
- Dr. Maestre is an Ecologist. In this tweet from 2014, he announced that he used altmetrics information in two successful grant applications. In his first application, to the Humboldt Foundation in Germany, he had to list 5 relevant publications.
- Here is the “relevance” portion of his annotated bibliography detailing the relevant publications.
- In his second application to the Consolidator Grants program of the European Research Council who funded his BIODESERT project, Dr. Maestre had to present an Early Achievement Track Record. Within that section he included key publications with the number of ISI Web of Science® [Google Scholar] citations (excluding self-citations) they have accrued, as well as with their altmetrics.
- Altmetrics are immediacy indicators. Comparing LIKE with LIKE is core premise of Altmetrics
- You can share DOI, software code, and images. It’s all traceable and it’s all part of your altmetric profile.
- Usage: who is using, is it in library collection—I built it, did someone come? Mentions: where the stories are hidden Captures: saved for later. this is a trend where you see future citations. if you save something to Facebook and read it later, that is tracked as capture. Then they compared captures to citations and found a strong connection. Citations: we know these Social Media: especially early career trying to break into what’s important.

- You can buy tweets, so some retweets are from fake accounts. Plum looks at multiple metrics and in this case, tweets would be lop-sided from other metrics. The pattern is skewed. Plum also has human investigate the patterns. But there are some gray areas including self promotion vs. gaming especially in social media.
- The NIH invests nearly $32.3 billion annually in medical research for the American people. More than 80% of the NIH's funding is awarded through almost 50,000 competitive grants to more than 300,000 researchers at more than 2,500 universities, medical schools, and other research institutions in every state and around the world. NIH Biosketch provides space for up to 5 contributions which should each include the following listed on the slide. There is an opportunity for altmetrics data to tell the story of your research and contribution.
