8 Scholarship is all about the flow of ideas

9 Networks are all about the flow of information

10 Citations form a vast network de Solla Price, Science (1965)

11 Citations among Authors Eugene Garfield Derek de Solla Price

12 Citations among Journals Physical Review Letters Ecology Letters

13 What happens when you scale up? 12, ,000,000 Journals Citations

14 Network Effects Network Effects, Centrality

15 High School Dating Network Image Courtesy of Mark

16 High School Dating Network System Scale: Network Topology Matters Q: Which network would MONO prefer? Individual Scale: Connection Source Matters Q: Which girl/boy should I date if I don t want MONO?

17 Who is the most influential high school student? Image Courtesy of Mark

18 Degree Centrality Eigenvector Centrality

19 Number of students Links 9 Degree Centrality

20 Accounting for the Network

21 The Network Matters

22 This network property of the scholarly literature was largely ignored over the first century of scholarly evaluation. How can we extract this information in order to better measure information flow?

23 Impact factor Garfield, Science (1955) Cites in 2010 to articles in 2009 or 2008 Number of articles in 2009 and 2008

44 How can we better evaluate the scholarly literature?

45 How can we better navigate the scholarly literature?

46 Eigenfactor and Microsoft Academic Research

48 Three things to remember 1. The scholarly literature forms a vast network 2. There is a wealth of information in the structure of network 3. Eigenfactor is a network metric that ranks scholarly journals
