Message forwarded by Mark:
The Research Data Alliance/ World Data Service (RDA/WDS) Publishing Data Bibliometrics Working Group is conducting a survey to investigate of the viability of bibliometrics for data. We would like to invite all data producers, users, managers and publishers to complete the survey to tell us how you currently evaluate the impact of data, and how you would wish to do so in the future.
The survey is one page long and should take no more than five minutes to complete. The survey link ishttps://www.surveymonkey.com/s/RDA_bibliometrics_data
The results will be disseminated via the Bibliometrics Working Group web page towards the end of 2014.
If you would like to know more about the survey or the Bibliometrics working group, or if you would like to join the working group, then please email sarah.callaghan@stfc.ac.uk or visit the working group web page at https://rd-alliance.org/group/rdawds-publishing-data-bibliometrics-wg.html
