RCNi, publishers of the weekly Nursing Standard and a suite of specialist nursing journals, has joined forces with web-based service Kudos to help authors increase the visibility and impact of their work. Using Kudos, authors can help spread the word about their work among their peers, professional networks, the media, and those within and outside their specialist communities.
They can use the platform to explain their work in plain language and add extra content such as slides presentations, video, photos, and blogs, and generate trackable links for sharing via email, web and social networks. These can then be directly mapped against views, downloads, altmetrics and citations, providing authors with a rich understanding of which channels and activities are most effective for broadening the reach and impact of their work.
More than 65,000 authors have signed up to use Kudos for managing communications around their publications – across multiple publishers and tools. RCNi joins more than 45 other publishers around the world who have also signed up to Kudos, which won the 2015 ALPSP Award for Innovation in Publishing.
