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. -

Enriching Chemistry Database Content with Human-Like Indexing of Documents
WHITE PAPER Enriching Chemistry Database Content with Human-Like Indexing Of Documents APPLYING THE POWER OF A TAXONOMY WITH 450 MILLION TERMS Taxonomies are used to index content in databases, making facts and literature discoverable. The size of some taxonomies can make this task daunting. A comprehensive taxonomy to describe chemistry uses roughly 450 million terms, making it ~450 times the size of the English language and ~150 times the size of the next nearest discipline-specific taxonomy. To ensure that Reaxys® fully facilitates discoverability in the far-reaching and complex discipline of chemistry, two processes occur alongside each other: the familiar manual indexing and excerption method; and a novel automatic but human-like indexing process. How can the content in a large and diverse database be made highly discoverable? The English language has over 1 million words. How many do you think the average person can recognize? The online survey TestYourVocab.com enables visitors to test the size of their English vocabulary. The results reveal interesting trends. Data on roughly 450,000 native English speakers shows that most adult survey participants have a vocabulary size of 20,000 to 35,000 words. These are words that they can recognize and define. Topping the charts were individuals who came near 40,000 words. While these figures do not represent the average English-speaking population—it takes a certain type of person to respond to such surveys—and may be biased by the data collection methodology, the survey results hint at an upper limit to the word and concept retention capacity of the human brain. -

Elsevier, Bepress, and a Glimpse at the Future of Scholarly Communication Christine L Ferguson, Murray State University
Murray State University From the SelectedWorks of Cris Ferguson 2018 Elsevier, bepress, and a Glimpse at the Future of Scholarly Communication Christine L Ferguson, Murray State University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/christine-l-ferguson/45/ Balance Point Elsevier, bepress, and a Glimpse at the Future of Scholarly Communication Cris Ferguson, Column Editor Director of Technical Services, Waterfield Library, Murray State University, Murray, KY 42071; phone: 270-809-5607; email: [email protected]; ORCID: http://orcid.org/0000- 0001-8410-6010 Keywords Elsevier; bepress; open access; Penn Libraries; Digital Commons; scholarly communications Abstract The acquisition of bepress by Elsevier in August 2017, while unpopular among many librarians, provides both companies opportunities for expansion and growth. 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.
