“…http://Altmetric.com, Plum Analytics, ImpactStory (formerly Total‐Impact), and PLOS Article‐Level Metrics are among the most frequently mentioned data collectors and aggregators. Numerous reviews of these tools and their strengths and weaknesses have been published (Bornmann, ; Brigham, ; Chamberlain, ; Das & Mishra, ; Galligan & Dyas‐Correia, ; Galloway, Pease, & Rauh, ; Gunn, ; Jobmann et al, ; Kwok, ; Melero, ; Neylon, Willmers, & King, ; Neylon et al, ; Neylon & Wu, ; Priem, ; Priem & Hemminger, ; Rasmussen & Andersen, ; Robinson‐García, Torres‐Salinas, Zahedi, & Costas, ; Roemer & Borchardt, ; Sweet, ; Wouters & Costas, ; Zahedi, Fenner, & Costas, ). Most of these reviews highlight issues associated with data collection and quality, as well as with the transparency of the process.…”

“…Sin embargo, la conversación sobre altmetrics se encuentra actualmente en lugares tradicionalmente no pertenecientes al contexto académico (Galligan y Dyas-Correia, 2013) como la web. Así, además de los más extendidos blogs científicos, páginas web de todo tipo y redes sociales propiamente dichas se han hecho eco del nuevo hot topic bibliométrico (Chia y Wee, 2014).…”

“…Como bibliotecarios de apoyo a la investigación son colaboradores asesores que ayudan a los investigadores a conocer, mejorar, comprender y construir su impacto científico, en tiempo real, demostrando el valor de sus investigaciones y la atención que obtienen. Varios autores afirman que estas prácticas convierten al bibliotecario en un auténtico especialista en el proceso de la comunicación científica (Priem, Piwowar y Hemminger, 2012;Galligan y Dyas-Correia, 2013;Lapinski, Piwowar y Priem, 2013) ya que evidencian la posible calidad y utilidad de facetas académicas de las que no se tenía información con las métricas tradicionales (ACRL, 2014). Esta información puede ser importante para la promoción y acreditación de los profesores investigadores, para identificar tendencias emergentes en la investigación y obtener financiación para proyectos.…”

“…The term "altmetrics" is an abbreviation of the phrase "alternative metrics" (Galligan and Dyas-Correia, 2013). This new field and its supporters have the ambitious goal of providing an alternative to or an enhancement of traditional citation metrics by measuring scholarly interactions taking place mainly in the social media (Galloway et al, 2013;Hoffmann et al, 2014;Kwok, 2013;Piwowar, 2013;Piwowar and Priem, 2013;Sud and Thelwall, 2014;Taylor, 2012;Viney, 2013;Wang et al, 2013;Wilson, 2013).…”
