ESNBU with PlumX article-level metrics integration
Tue, 19 Nov 2019 - 23:18:35 CEST ✍
We've always looked after our authors and we know how important it is for scholars to be able to track how their research output is used. Therefore, we worked on a widget integration from PlumX (an Elsevier service) to show the usage of each published article.
The widget is displayed on the landing abstract page for each article and shows Citations, Usage, Captures (bookmarks, favs), Mentions (blog posts, comments, reviews, Wikipedia references, news media), Social media (shares, comments, tweets, Facebook likes, etc. that reference the article). Clicking on the 'see details' link will take you to a more detailed page on PlumX where you'll be able to follow each of these mentions in context.
