Taylor & Francis Group. Use of Social Media by the Library : Current Practices and Future Opportunities, a white paper from Taylor & Francis, octobre 2014. http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/access/white-paper-social-media.pdf

Specialist research networking sites such as ResearchGate and Academia. edu are seen as having potential, but their perceived disconnect with publishers and the library community is a barrier.
