This workshop aims to bring together leading scientists and practitioners in the domains of bibliometrics, informetrics, network and web science, digital libraries, academic policies, and open repositories for a public discussion on the quantitative evaluation of scholarly impact and value of publications. on scientific research. Quantitative evaluation of scholarly impact and value has historically been conducted on the basis of citation data. This approach is not always appropriate or accurate in the fast-paced, open, and interdisciplinary nature of scholarship which is, to a large degree, dependent upon digital data and sources. The workshop is meant to provide guidance and research agendas for further development of metrics for scientific impact and value. The workshop's intellectual merit is found in defining the scientific criteria and objectives that would lead to a more general community-acceptance of various impact metrics. The impact of science as traditionally measured is at the point of fundamental change as the digital research environment grows and attracts more participants. Novel impact metrics, that gain community acceptance, may lead to a more diverse and balanced scientific landscape in which the contributions of a larger and more diverse community are more equally recognized and valued.

本次研讨会旨在汇集文献计量学、信息计量学、网络科学、数字图书馆、学术政策和开放知识库领域的领先科学家和从业者，就出版物学术影响和价值的定量评估进行公开讨论。关于科学研究。 学术影响和价值的定量评估历来是根据引文数据进行的。 这种方法并不总是适当或准确的，因为学术的快节奏、开放和跨学科性质在很大程度上依赖于数字数据和来源。该研讨会旨在为进一步制定科学影响和价值指标提供指导和研究议程。该研讨会的智力价值在于定义了科学标准和目标，这将导致社区更广泛地接受各种影响指标。随着数字研究环境的发展并吸引更多参与者，传统衡量科学的影响力正处于根本性变化的时刻。获得社区认可的新颖的影响指标可能会带来更加多样化和平衡的科学格局，其中更大、更多样化的社区的贡献会得到更平等的认可和重视。
