| Sumario: | The importance of the Web as a new medium for disseminating and promoting scholarly research is discussed. Particular attention is paid to its potential to provide evidence of wider impact for research than that which can be shown by citation analysis.

A conceptual framework is also proposed to help funding and promotion committees assess and compare portfolios. |
