Article Level Metrics
Article-level metrics (ALMs)
attempt to provide a snapshot of how an individual article is being discussed,
shared, and used. ALMs combine traditional metrics, such as number of times
cited, with altmetrics (e.g.,
mentions in blogs, downloads).
Where do I find them? Whether or
not ALMs are available for a particular article will depend on the platform or
publisher.

Library of Science) journals. ALM data, API, and widgets are available.
