目标

• 演示图书馆员如何可以帮助临床医生和研究人员通过了解不同的衡量指标发现他们的学术价值

Objective

• To demonstrate ways librarians can assist clinicians and researchers discover their scholarly value by understanding different research metrics

衡量什么？

• 引用指标– 单篇文章被引用频次

• Altmetrics– 利用社交网络众包来分析学术覆盖范围

及影响

What’s Being Measured?

• Citation metrics– How often an individual article was cited

• Altmetrics– “Crowdsourcing” the social web for

analyzing reach and visibility of research

变化中的学术影响指数领域

• 引文指标– Impact factor– Eigenfactor

• 其他指标– PlumX– Altmetric.com

Changing Landscape of Research Metrics

• Citation Metrics– Impact factor– Eigenfactor

• Other Metrics– PlumX– Altmetric.com

1 ：你最看重的是哪个指标？

引用和应用 – 从学术上来说，最重要的是引用（学术界）和应用（实际生活中，对引起业界实践改变有多重要）

对研究参与者提出的问题:

Q1: Which metric do you value the most?

Citations and usage - for academic purposes the most important thing would really be citations (for academia) and usage (for real-world how important is this in potentially changing practice).

Questions asked of study participants:

2: 你会用这些指标做什么？

争取资金；证明我们的研究导致实践模式改变；晋升及终生受聘；并有可能吸引合作者（谁引了我的研究，谁可能有兴趣和我一起工作）。

Q2: What would you use these metrics for?

Funding opportunities, showing that our work is making a difference in changing practice patterns, promotion and tenure, and potentially for collaborators (who cited my work, who might be interested in working with me).

3: 你会联系那些讨论你研究的人吗？

我会（已有）联系那些通过社交媒体讨论我工作的人。我邀请他们加入 LinkedIn 。

Q3: Would you contact someone discussing your research?

I would (have) contacted someone who discusses my work via social media - and I asked them to join me in LinkedIn.

4: 你对公开这些信息有顾虑吗？

那些与我们研究有关的，已经公之于众的信息，任何人都可以传播。如果有重要的必须保密的情况，我们不会在论文发表之前公布。

Q4: Do you have concerns about this information?

Anything relating to our work that is already out in public can get distributed however anyone wants…If it is important that something be kept secret, we just keep it a secret prior to publication.

图书馆员的任务

• 推动开放获取，特别是在您机构中的 OA基金• 与研究人员就如何提高个人影响进行沟通• 参与社交媒体传播（系院联络员）• 开发入门工具的知识库• 鼓励使用独特的作者标识符，例如 ORCID ( 开放

研究员和协助者的编号 )

Role of the Librarian

• Promote open access and in particular an OA fund at your institution

• Communicate with researchers on ways to raise profile

• Contribute to social media (department liaisons)• Develop a knowledge base for tools to get

people started• Encourage use of unique author identifiers like

ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID)

提高研究人员的影响

• 翻译演讲文档• 提供开放存取• 通过社交媒体和专业网络自我推销• 利用策展，网页收藏和共享工具推介• 联络那些下载你研究的人• 把你的纯技术文章简化成科普版本

Raising Researcher Profiles

• Translate presentations• Make available in open access venues• Self-promote through social media and

professional networking• Utilize curating, bookmarking, and sharing tools

to promote content• Get in touch with those who download your work• Create a “plain language” version of your

technical work
