~15’000 High Energy Physics (HEP) scientists smash stuff at the speed of
light to produce new stuff

~15’000 HEP theorists scratch their heads to make sense of all that stuff and then
some more

Where do HEP scientists look for info?
• Survey of 2’000+ scientists (10% of community)• 40% of the scientists rely only on OA literature
• Prevalence of free biblographic/bibliometric tools integrating published and OA literature
• Google as proxy of arXiv, SPIRES, publishers

Citation augmentation• Discipline repository yields immense advantage– Five times more citations for articles in arXiv
– 20% of 2-year citations occur before publication

But journals are still essential
• Crucial role of peer-review • And interface with officialdom

Conclusions
• Bibliometric studies show:– Advantage of HEP OA subject repositories
• Visibility, Acceleration, Impact
– HEP journals are no longer a communication tool
• INSPIRE: bringing it to the next level– Better content, crowd-source curation – More content, beyond text, OA heritage– More bibliometrics…
• Future of bibliometrics :– One single place where to find information – Consider synoptically traditional and OA sources
