Development of altmetrics (alternative indicators)

● To complement, not replace traditional metrics

● Help people understand how research is being received and used, and

by who

● Not intended as an indicator of quality

● Can help provide further evidence of engagement and ‘societal impact’

● Give credit for research outputs other than articles
