Elsevier talks up output informatics for academia

Mark Chillingworth

STM publishers can provide universities with the help they need in measuring their output so as to attract funding and students in the face of increasingly stiff competition, says Elsevier.

The publisher's director of strategy, Nick Fowler, told IWR that Elsevier's experience of measuring journal and article usage would allow it to develop new services for academia.

Universities are now competing in a global marketplace to secure the best students. With British universities charging tuition fees of [pounds sterling]3,000, a recent survey found that the number of UK students applying for US universities had increased by 64%.

"Funding bodies and institutions want to assess their own productivity and its quality," Fowler said.
