Data science company Altmetric has announced that The MIT Press has integrated Altmetric Badges for Books into its book pages. Visitors will be provided with an at-a-glance summary of the online attention relating to all of their monograph titles, discovering for the first time the broader engagement from key audiences and stakeholders.
Users are able to click on the Altmetric badges on The MIT Press site to view the associated details page for each item. The Altmetric details pages include a summary and full break-down of all of the mentions and shares that Altmetric has tracked from sources such as the mainstream media, social networks, and public policy sources; and data from the Open Syllabus Project to showcase where the book has been included in institutional reading lists and course syllabi.
The Altmetric badges are now visible on all book pages on the The MIT Press website.
