Bibliotheks-Gezwitscher zum Erfolg bringen
Gute Ideen von Anne [via netbib], wie man Leute (findet) dazu bringt, seinen Bibliothekstweets zu folgen:
- Dann musst du halt so ein paar Alpha-Twitterer aus der Fachdisziplin auf dich aufmerksam machen.
- Vielleicht mal gucken, wer da in der Fachdisziplin auf dem Science 2.0-Zug unterwegs ist und bloggt – unter den Wissenschafts-Bloggern finden sich bestimmt auch viele Twitterer.
- Klar, du solltest deinen Twitter-Account auf jeden Fall auf eurer Website anzukündigen, darüber kommen dann auch schon mal Follower dazu.
- [Zurückfolgen] kann sinnvoll sein, wenn du die Leute persönlich kennst oder die tatsächlich über deine Bibliothek twittern oder aber du denen mal auf einen Tweet geantwortet hast.
- Naja, du kannst dich ja auch einfach in Gespräche einschalten, also, wenn du jetzt mal guckst, wer da in
so twittert und der äußert da vielleicht eine Frage, auf die du als Bibliothek eine Antwort hast, dann antworte ihm doch einfach. - Es gibt aber auch so was wie Twitter-Gruppen für Unis und Städte… Also hier in Hamburg gibt es so eine, die heisst Twitter Groups ~ uni-hamburg

Impact Factor Boxing 2009 von Duncan Hull in O’Really
Fight Night Punch Test by djclear904The latest results from the impact factor boxing world championship are out. This years rankings include the first-ever update to the newly introduced Five Year Impact Factor and Eigenfactor Metrics [1,2] in Journal Citation Reports (JCR) on the Web (see www.isiknowledge.com/JCR), presumably in response to widespread criticism of impact factors.

To blog science is to document that I’m first
Jean-Claude Bradley erklärt uns in Useful Chemistry an einem Beispiel, warum es für Wissenschaftler manchmal wichtig ist, etwas schnell zu bloggen, bevor ein anderer seine Hand drauflegt:
The point is that mainstream scholarship (Nature Chemistry is certainly an example of that) is able and willing to use Web2.0 references when these are the most appropriate.
There are very few examples of mindblowingly original ideas. People working in related areas tend to come up with similar ideas. In a world where any of your competitors can blog their ideas as soon as they think of them, hoarding ideas might be the more dangerous choice.
It doesn’t matter what you think about the professional status of blogs. It doesn’t matter most scientists don’t blog. The only thing that matters is that at least one of your competitors is willing to blog their research and that the traditional journals in your field are willing to accept blog posts (and other Web2.0 publication formats) as valid references.

Elsevier lobbying UK universities to derail OA archiving
Peter Suber verweist in Elsevier lobbying UK universities to derail OA archiving auf einen Artikel von Zoë Corbyn, Publisher ‚threat‘ to open access, Times Higher Education, June 18, 2009.
An internet posting earlier this month alerted repository managers to Elsevier’s move. „Rumours are spreading that Elsevier staff are approaching UK vice-chancellors and persuading them to point to PDF copies of articles on Elsevier’s web-site rather than have the articles deposited in institutional repositories,“ the memo, on a mailing list operated by the Joint Information Systems Committee, said.
