![Risks (?) of open science
• Blogging is a waste of precious time that could be spent on “legitimate”
publishing
• Because it’s a form of self-publishing that lacks peer review, blogging
isn’t usually viewed as a legitimate form of scholarship
• Dismissal of my work because it’s online [and] criticisms that my work
isn’t good enough to be published anywhere else.
• Sometimes blogging is even seen as disseminating one’s ideas too
freely. In a competitive academic field, research ideas could be
“scooped” from a blog, while established journals may not want to
publish work that’s available in some form online.

San Francisco Declaration of Research Assessment
(http://am.ascb.org/dora)
• “The declaration intends to halt the practice of correlating the
journal impact factor to the merits of a specific scientist's
contributions. [:] this practice creates biases and inaccuracies
when appraising scientific research. [:] the impact factor is not
to be used as a substitute ‘measure of the quality of individual
research articles, or in hiring, promotion, or funding decisions’”
Altmetrics Manifesto (http://altmetrics.org/manifesto)
• “Altmetrics expand our view of what impact looks like, but also of
what’s making the impact. [:] Unlike citation metrics, altmetrics
will track impact outside the academy, impact of influential but
uncited work, and impact from sources that aren’t peer-reviewed.
[:] The speed of altmetrics presents the opportunity to create
real-time recommendation and collaborative filtering systems”](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/sofia2017petersfinal-170304110735/75/open-science-altmetrics-25-2048.jpg?cb=1668554837)

Keynote at 4th Annual KnowEscape Conference, Sofia, Bulgaria (Feb 24, 2017). http://knowescape.org/knowescape2017/ Yes, we’re open: Open science & altmetrics Abstract: Open Science is en vogue – especially after Carlos Moedas, EU-Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation, has outlined his vision for Europe along the lines of ‘open innovation, open science, open to the world’. Open science describes the transition of ‘publishing as fast as possible’ towards ‘sharing knowledge as fast as possible’. Several reasons explain the move towards openness, it is expected, for example, that open science will increase the efficiency of science. Of course, digital media and web-based environments are keys to this development, but it also requires a systemic change to transform open science from a nice-to-have-feature into the default way of performing research. Altmetrics, i.e. social media-based metrics, are often considered drivers of open science and essential tools for changing the reward system in science. When looking closer, though, severe tensions between features as well as expectations of open science and altmetrics become apparent. The talk will argue that open science only can enfold its potential if ‘openness’ is fully embraced and supported by open metrics.

- 27. Altmetrics in open science The call for open metrics • research products and data sources for metric development need to be logically selected, open documented, and chosen in line with the disciplinary norms; • data that underlies metrics, indicators, and measurements need to be open and accessible (preferably via automatic processes, e.g. API); • provision of software that was used for calculations; • logical, scientific, and documented explanation of how data were derived and metrics calculated.
