Implementing the badges for books with ISBNs

Implementing badges for books is as simple as any of our other badges. Technical materials with instructions for embedding badges can be found here. 

Just add the <div> element specifying an ISBN wherever you want a badge to appear.  The "dataisbn" can be a 10 or 13 character ISBN, as seen below. The book badge is generated if Altmetric has attention records associated with that ISBN. The badge will generate regardless of whether the hyphens are included in the ISBN, e.g.:

<divclass='altmetricembed'databadgetype='donut'dataisbn="978-0-415-71896-7"></div>

Implementing the badges for books with other identifiers

Badges for books with other identifiers (DOIs, PMIDs etc.) can be implemented the same way as badges for other scholarly outputs, with no <div> amendment required. As with other badges, you can customize the size and badge type.

You can find more information about Altmetric for books here and if you would like to add the badges for books on your content, please contact us.
