Peer-‐reviewed research is more openly available than every before: Everyone can read and engage
44K online mentions of scholarly articles every day.
1 mention every 2 seconds!
50K unique articles are shared each week.
>4.1M articles with tracked attention data.

What are altmetrics?
Not a replacement but a complement
Policy documents, blogs, mainstream news, social media
Providing a multi-faceted picture of engagement
Altmetric is a data science company that tracks attention to research outputs, delivering output level metrics via visually engaging, intuitive interfaces.

CONNECTING Integrating Altmetric for Institutions with external
publications systems
Integrating with Symplectic Elements
o Low barrier technical setup for end users o Regular updates via API o Altmetric badges integrated in Elements interface o Departmental hierarchy, author papers
Integrating with figshare in 2016
o Altmetric data will soon be added to figshare o Metrics along with views and shares o Regular updates via API
Integrating with publishers, institutions, etc. Where will you see our badges?
Building a profiles connector
o Populated Altmetric for Institutions using VIVO profiles o Stony Brook University School of Medicine embedded
badges in researcher profiles alongside publications o Browse by authors and medical faculties
DEVELOPING Some plans and improvements
we’d like to see across the scholarly community to enhance
altmetrics data…
• Prototype app • Encourage researchers to register for an ORCID and improve author
search
Altmetric and ORCID integration
• This team consisted of MaI MacLeod, Maciej Gajewski and ScoI MaIhewman of Altmetric and Ben Blackburne of Papers. Their code can be found at hIps://github.com/amconference/altmetric-‐orcid-‐profiles and a test version is running at hIp://altmetric-‐orcid-‐profiles.herokuapp.com/
• Given an ORCID ID (such as Jean Liu’s above), their web applicaHon will present a profile of that person’s papers with any relevant altmetrics data, giving a breakdown of their menHons.
Altmetric and ORCID Mash-Up From the first 1:AM London Hack Day!
• A recent blog post highlighted interviews with 6 researchers from around the world and how they were integraHng Altmetric data into their workflows: hIp://www.altmetric.com/blog/altmetrics-‐in-‐acHon-‐examples-‐and-‐feedback-‐from-‐data-‐savvy-‐researchers/
• Egon Willighagen found the Altmetric/ORCID app saved Hme as he “did not have to look up the staHsHcs manually…it uses my ORCID profile to get the DOIs and aggregate stuff”.

See the App in action!
ORCID Integration in the Altmetric Explorer
Authors with an ORCID will be able to quickly view all of the conversations about their articles in one place.
Beneficial for authors
Coming soon: Search by ORCID in the Altmetric Explorer You’ll soon be able to enter an ORCID into the Altmetric Explorer and quickly see which of the associated research outputs have been mentioned online.
Promotion of ORCID in our Training Material!
