  • Abstract
    This work seeks to bridge areas of academic institutional research, social network analysis, and content analysis through the application of a social media paradigm to the academic research publishing environment. The concept is built upon the analysis of similarities and differences that exist in the structural and functional building blocks of academic publishing and social media. The potential impact in the form of new research directions that arise from this application are presented.
