About Altmetric
Altmetric is part of Digital Science, an AI-focused technology company that tracks where published research is mentioned online. Altmetric is a simple and effective way of understanding who is engaging with research online and what they’re saying. It monitors the digital footprint of scholarly works across various platforms, unveiling their societal impact.
Altmetric in HeinOnline
In HeinOnline, an Altmetric donut badge will only appear if an article includes a Digital Object Identifier, also known as a DOI, and at least one metric from an outside online source. The Altmetric donut badge can be found in four different places throughout HeinOnline.
Search Results
Users will see the Altmetric badge located to the right of the document, next to the ScholarCheck metrics in search results.
Author Profile Pages
Similar to search results, the donut badge will be listed next to the ScholarCheck metrics of the author’s listed works.
Viewing an Article
An Altmetric badge will display next to the ScholarCheck metrics above the table of contents when viewing a document.
MyHein
If a user saves an article that contains an Altmetric badge to their MyHein, the badge will be displayed there as well.
