Description
Exploring the use of digital badges for crediting contributors to scholarly papers for their work. As the research environment becomes more digital, we want to test how we can use this medium to help bring transparency and credit for individuals in the publication process. In this session we will implement PaperBadger on your personal site or your journal.
This work is a collaboration with publishers BioMed Central (BMC), Ubiquity Press (UP) and the Public Library of Science (PLoS); the biomedical research foundation, The Wellcome Trust; the software and technology firm Digital Science; the registry of unique researcher identifiers, ORCID; and the Mozilla Science Lab.
Agenda
You can display contributorship badges for science on your own site! Researchers earn badges for their specific contributions to an academic paper. A researcher who worked on investigation earns a prestigious investigation badge for that paper.
The PaperBadger widget enables anyone, from publishers to individual researchers, to easily display badges on a website by including just a few lines of script with the relevant doi (digital object identifier) and a designated
in your view file. Authors can add the script to their own sites to display badges earned, while publishers can use the script to display all badges associated with a paper:
You can either use paper-badger-widget.js (documentation), which supports old browsers or widget.js (documentation), which is in development and currently only supports evergreen browsers and IE9+.
Participants
3-5 participants: hands-on workshop adding Paper Badger widgets to their individual sites.
6-15 participants: Demo of Paper Badger + small breakout groups working on adding widgets or implementing features.
16-25 participants: demo of Paper Badger + small group discussions on use and features.
Outcome
Engage and grow the Paper Badger community at MozFest to continue developing a tool useful for academic research.
