Johns Hopkins University Press (JHUP) has partnered with data science company and alternative metrics provider Altmetric to provide their users and staff with valuable publication attention insights.
JHUP plans to integrate the Altmetric Badges for their books and journals hosted on Project MUSE and the JHUP website. Project MUSE is an online database of peer-reviewed academic journals and electronic books which provides access to digital humanities and social science content from more than 250 non-profit publishers and scholarly societies around the world.
The Altmetric Badges and associated details pages will be available to visitors of the Project MUSE platform and the JHUP website from April 1. These colourful visualisations offer valuable insight and immediate feedback to readers and authors on how publications are being received and shared on online sources such as social media, mainstream news and Wikipedia.
In addition to the integration of the Altmetric Badges on their publication platform, JHUP has provided their staff with access to the Altmetric Explorer which will provide essential analytics for their editorial, marketing and sales departments.
By utilising the Altmetric Explorer, JHUP staff will be able to browse, filter and report on the online attention for more than 23 million research publications, including their own. The platform allows all users to gather, analyse and compare the online attention that JHUP and other publishers’ publications are receiving, click through to demographic information about social media users mentioning their publications, receive regular reports on new mentions for their titles and much more.
