Editor's Notes
- Do not replace: citations, your H-index, or a journal’s impact factor. Only work in a networked environment
- Provided authors with downloads, searches that lead to their papers and # of “views” We have authors publishing in OA journals that provide altmetrics (PLOS) Such as code and podcasts
- Anchor: Reference source and easy access to online tools Content: Other guides were: out of date: ReaderMeter, dense, deep separation of the sciences and humanities Accessible: needed it to be useful for a wide audience – campus has a high # of new Fac and high grad student attendance at workshops
