THEORY

• Open Access & Online visibility

• Digital Identity and reputation

DEMOS

• How-to guide: tools for disseminating scientific

papers: repositories, Google Scholar & altmetrics

Theory

Page 4: Improving your scientific visibility: From theory to practice

• It is essential to disseminate our scientific

activity through the Internet in order to gain

visibility and social and scientific impact.

• Part 1: We introduce the history of Open Access

through its main figures and milestones and we

define its main concepts and characteristics.

• Part 2: We emphasize the need to develop a

scientific and academic identity and we give some

tips on how to manage our digital reputation

correctly.

Page 12: Improving your scientific visibility: From theory to practice

An old tradition and a new technology have converged to make

possible an unprecedented public good. The old tradition is the

willingness of scientists and scholars to publish the fruits of their

research in scholarly journals without payment, for the sake of

inquiry and knowledge. The new technology is the internet.

We realize that the process of moving to open access changes the

dissemination of knowledge with respect to legal and financial

aspects. Our organizations aim to find solutions that support

further development of the existing legal and financial frameworks

in order to facilitate optimal use and access.

Our aim is to catalyze a revolution in scientific

publishing by providing a compelling demonstration of

the value and feasibility of open-access publication.

Page 16: Improving your scientific visibility: From theory to practice
Page 17: Improving your scientific visibility: From theory to practice

The key to all these issues is the right of authors to achieve easily-

accessible distribution of their work. If you would like to declare

publicly that you will not support any Elsevier journal unless they

radically change how they operate…

Recommendation on access to and

preservation of scientific informationStates that “Policies on open access to scientific research results should apply to all

research that receives public funds.

What is

a repository?

A repository, deposit or archive is a

centralized place where digital information

is stored and preserved, normally

databases or digital files

• Institutional

• Thematic

• Articles

• Data

Advantages of

Repositories

1. Metadata description

2.Compliance with international standards

3.Indexing by search engines

● If researchers were willing to they would be able to

communicate their findings without publishing in journals

● There are no technological barriers to Open Access

rather than those we impose to ourselves

● For many researchers science is not important, but

their academic careers

Page 36: Improving your scientific visibility: From theory to practice

● Evaluation systems should include new metrics and

communication channels

● You can publish in impact journals and still confront the

system by making your papers available

● We must have a clear and well-defined strategy as

researchers in the Internet: Digital identity + reputation

Lessons learnedOur on-line reputation is build upon

our off-line scientific reputation

Internet does not forget malpractice

Build first your scientific reputation with papers acknowledged by your

community, then you can start to work on your on-line reputation

Do not try to earn an on-line reputation dishonestly

or with strategies from other sectors
