Abstract: Scientific community produced scientific information and shared with the people in a different medium through public lectures, seminars, by writing reports, articles, etc. Web 2.0 and Social media tools are the revolutionary tools and technologies which help libraries in creation, collaboration, communication in the field of scientific information. As the social web is a participative and interactive web many people like to comment, discuss, and share scientific information if they found it useful. Previously citation was the only medium to calculate the impact of particular research work but now-a-days people think of some other alternatives like article level metrics which include the social feedback of one particular research output. The paper briefly outlines the use of social media by the scientific community and library professionals and also discusses various metrics, tools available to evaluate an impact of a research work.
