Plain Language Summary
Simple Summary
• Important structure and
language for
specialists
• But takes time to read
even the abstract
• And not easy for non-
specialists to
understand
• Quicker for specialists
to scan and filter
• Easier for non-
specialists and
speakers of other
languages to
understand
• Better for engagement
with media and the
public

• 2012年12月,一群學術期刊編輯者與出版者於美國細胞生物學會(ASCB) 的年會上共同發表宣言。
• 強調不應以期刊評估指標 (如: Impact
Factor) 作為評估研究論文品質以及研究者貢獻的工具,也不應以此作為聘任、升遷、經費決策的依據。
• 應該回歸研究內容的價值與重要性。

“The pilot will be undertaken in the first half of 2017. It will be
essential for informing the development and implementation of
the first full engagement and impact assessment in 2018, which
will run alongside ERA 2018 as a companion exercise.”

“A [Swedish] system for resource allocation
involving peer review should be further
investigated with a view to introduction in
the longer term. This kind of system could offer a more complete assessment
that can also take account of a research area’s current potential, rather than
basing resource allocation purely on historical data.”
“[T]he Swedish Agency for Innovation
Systems should be tasked with designing
methods to enable performance and
quality in higher education and community
partnerships to be assessed in terms of
relevance and utilisation.”
Sweden

[T]he key element of embedded
librarianship is to move librarians out
of the traditional library setting,
whether physically or virtually, and into
a new framework for providing library
services. It shifts the emphasis from
reactively answering research
requests in a vacuum to developing a
unique understanding of what
customers need and delivering
proactive results.
