– ‘…We rely on filters to make sense of the scholarly literature, but the narrow, traditional filters are being swamped… …the growth of new, online scholarly tools allows us to make new filters: these altmetrics reflect the broad, rapid impact of scholarship in this burgeoning ecosystem. We call for more tools and research based on altmetrics.’ Link to the altmetrics vs. traditional data for an Ebola article in Nature Link to the altmetrics vs. traditional data for an Ebola article in Nature The thrusts behind altmetrics: discovery 2014 臺灣學術機構典藏 (TAIR) 研討會 14
