Abstract
We are witnessing a heated debate among all professional communities on how to evaluate the scientific work of scientists. Are articles or books more valuable? What makes a text scientific? Is just having a DOI number enough to do so? Why does the marginal utility of a page change so drastically on the 20th page of a BSS (1800 characters per page) that no one has used for years? And after the 100th, the marginal utility (for an Academic Staff Development Act - ASDA - procedure) of every subsequent page is zero (if it's a standalone book)? I am struck by the lack of public evaluation of the substance of colleagues' scholarly output, unless it is a procedure under the APA.
