Abstract
Altmetrics measure the impact of scholarship via mentions in social media and other non-traditional venues. For librarians and faculty, altmetrics are also a new area for research. The focus of this presentation is the results of surveys of academic librarians’ and LIS scholars’ awareness and use of altmetrics.
