From today you will see a new icon in your DISCOVER search results - this is for PlumX Metrics, and it's called a Plumprint.
The Plumprint gives you information about how popular the item is - how many times it's been downloaded (not just by UoB users), and what attention it has had elsewhere on the Internet, for example on social media, news sites and blogs.
Plumprints appear in the results list for books as well as journal articles.
If you hover over the icon, you'll see an overview of this information
or you can click on it to see the full details, and link out to posts and tweets.
Hopefully you'll find it useful!
