DOI:10.5281/zenodo.3333395 Performance tracking in science Since the mid-1920s, a scientist's performance was tracked by using bibliometric information such as the number of publications or their citations. Today, there are unprecedented possibilities for controlling science by analysing data on production and use of scientific information, so that citations only play a subordinate role in the evaluation of science.

  • Knowledge Unlatched Proof-Of-Concept Pilot
    A Global Library Consortium Model for Funding Open Access Scholarly Books Full Report on the Proof of Concept Pilot 2014 Lucy Montgomery Curtin University, Australia Abstract This special issue of Cultural Science Journal is devoted to the report of a groundbreaking experiment in re-coordinating global markets for specialist scholarly books and enabling the knowledge commons: the Knowledge Unlatched proof-of-concept pilot. The pilot took place between January 2012 and September 2014. It involved libraries, publishers, authors, readers and research funders in the process of developing and testing a global library consortium model for supporting Open Access books. The experiment established that authors, librarians, publishers and research funding agencies can work together in powerful new ways to enable open access; that doing so is cost effective; and that a global library consortium model has the potential dramatically to widen access to the knowledge and ideas contained in book-length scholarly works.

This Balance Point column outlines some of the benefits to both companies and the reaction by the library community. Also addressed is the announcement by the Penn Libraries that they are searching for a new open source repository potentially to replace bepress’s Digital Commons. The column concludes with some discussion of Elsevier’s relationship with open access content and the impact of the acquisition on the scholarly communications infrastructure. On August 2, 2017, Elsevier announced its acquisition of bepress, the provider of the Digital Commons institutional repository platform. Digital Commons “allows institutions to collect, organize, preserve and disseminate their intellectual output, including preprints, working papers, journals or specific articles, dissertations, theses, conference proceedings and a wide variety of other data” (Elsevier, August 2, 2017). bepress’s other major service, the Experts Gallery Suite, focuses on showcasing the expertise and scholarship of faculty. At the time Elsevier acquired the company, bepress had more than 500 customers using Digital Commons, and over 100 institutions using the Experts Gallery Suite.
