  12. Testing the Concept • A test ALM Email was sent to Authors, in ~ August 2008 • at which point PLOS ONE had published ~3,100 articles • The mailing was merged to all corresponding authors whose articles exceeded certain thresholds for having ALMs to report on • We provided info which was scraped / obtained from • Google Scholar • Google Analytics • PLOS Commenting functionality • CiteULike • Google News • Response was 100% positive – giving us reassurance about messaging August 2008
