10. Information Extraction

11. We are publishing this data to the LOD cloud http://code-research.eu/

12. Connecting researchers Search Read Annotate Organize Write Import

13. Data we collect Metadata about the paper –title, author, tags, annotations, reads, shares, groups Metadata about the researcher –discipline, educational status, country, papers they’ve authored, presentations, expertise

14. 2.7M researchers

15. Defining readership Each document addition is a “read” stamped with metadata describing the context of the read event a read is like a citation, but faster and captures more

16. research impacts more than authors

17. Citations are slow

18. Mendeley is fast

21. Readership vs. citations it comes with a payload of metadata it accrues faster it illuminates previously hidden impact
