what it means for PKP to offer Article Level Metrics
O Public Knowledge Project (PKP) está lançando uma aplicação da métrica em nível de artigo da PloS (PLOS’ Article Level Metrics, ALM) focado em periódicos do mundo em desenvolvimento. O serviço tem o potencial de alcançar milhares de periódicos que utilizam o Open Journal System que, caso bem sucedido, pode incentivar editores de periódicos a orientar suas revistas a um público mais amplo. A apresentação apresenta o novo serviço ALM da PKP e os desafios encontrados, bem como um primeiro olhar para as métricas de todos os artigos publicados no SciELO Brasil em 2012. A apresentação fornece o primeiro e inédito olhar nas métricas em nível de artigo de um país Latino Americano e convida editores de periódicos e publishers a participar usando o Open Journal Systems, inscrevendo-se para ter acesso ao serviço.

- 18. • new ways gaining visibility • new ways demonstrating visibility • good articles can stand out from journal • researchers can stand out for good work @juancommander
- 19. • counting some forms of public impact • being rewarded for other kinds of impact • incentive to gear research to public interests • move away from dependencies on measures biased against the South @juancommander (local?)
- 22. All Place coordinates in the Twitter Decahose 23 October 2012 to 30 November 2012 http://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/4366/3654 Twitter is usage is very skewed @juancommander are you surprised?

- 32. hopefully: • change • open minds to alternative measures of impact • attract • give @juancommander culture around communicating research readers to a different group of journals an incentive to do research of public interest
- 33. We are actively looking for journals especially from Latin America sign-up your OJS journal here! http://tinyurl.com/pkp-alm and tell your friends! @juancommander
