Last week, I had the opportunity to present a poster on the new Scopus Article Metrics module at 2:AM Amsterdam (2nd Altmetrics Conference). The poster, “Why Elsevier is taking a new approach to article and alternative metrics”, is now available for download from the Mendeley Data sharing platform at: http://dx.doi.org/10.17632/47y8drx8bk.1
The same day, an accompanying article was featured on Elsevier’s Reviewers’ Update: To read or not to read? New Scopus Article Metrics can help you decide
In addition to all the feedback from 2:AM and the following altmetrics15 conference, some great feedback also came in from Lizzy Sparrow who blogged her First impression of Scopus Article Metrics.
This year marked the 5th anniversary of the altmetrics manifesto, which was cause for a lot of reflection at both conferences on how far we have gotten. In general, while there is still a long way to go, I was impressed with the level of maturity of the market and community in comparison to where we were five years ago. For a good summary of the conferences, I suggest my colleague, Paul Groth‘s, Trip Report: 5 years of altmetrics #2amconf #altmetrics15.
