Kudos Platform Gains Web of Science Citations
Thomson Reuters agreed to add Web of Science citation data to Kudos’ author dashboards. This data, which features science, social sciences, and arts and humanities content, will allow Kudos’ authors to view their publication performance in order to measure their works’ impact. The dashboard already includes other metrics such as downloads from participating publishers’ sites, altmetric data, and click-throughs from author-sharing activities on Kudos’ platform.“Authors are being exposed to an increasingly complex landscape of metrics relating to their research activities. It’s our ambition at Kudos to bring all these metrics together from across the multiple platforms that researchers use today to publish and share information about themselves and their work,” says Melinda Kenneway, a director and co-founder of Kudos.
