The UK PubMed Central (UKPMC), part of a network of PMC International repositories, has announced the availability of new UKPMC grant reporting services. Users of the UK PubMed Central Manuscript Submission System (UKMSS) will now be able to use a new service - 'My UKPMC' - to report on the outcomes of any grant funded by any one of the UKPMC Funders' Group member organisations.
Grantholders can export grant reports not only in standard .csv and xml formats but also as publicly available web pages, which will update each time a new publication is added to either PubMed or UK PubMed Central. The service also provides grantholders with a 'My Impact' report which shows the number of citations each paper has attracted. The citation count data is provided by Thompson/Reuters Web of Knowledge (WoK). Users who have full access to the WoK service will be able to see details of the citing articles.
Additional metrics from other organisations, along with data such as number of downloads from the UKPMC repository, will also be provided in the near future.
