Abstract

Altmetrics was developed in 2010 and have attracted high interest of publishers, researchers, and generators of information databases. Altmetrics quickly obtained high popularity and have become one of the additional assessment tools for evaluation of scientific work. Currently, they are represented on the websites of large publishing houses, bibliometric databases, as well as special altmetrics resourses. We observed the most frequently used altmetrics and tried to detect their rank among other quantitative approaches to assessment of scientific work.
