Abstract
The Los Alamos Eprint Archive (LANL) is a public repository for a growing proportion of the current
research literature in Physics. The Open Citation-linking Project (OpCit) is making this resource still more powerful
and useful for its current physicist users by connecting each paper to each paper it cites; this can be extended to all the
rest of the disciplines in other Open Archives designed to be interoperable through compliance with the Santa Fe
Convention. A citation-linked online digital corpus also allows powerful new forms of online informetric analysis that
go far beyond static citation analysis, measuring researchers' usage of all phases of the literature, from pre-refereeing
preprint to post-refereeing postprint, from download to citation, yielding an embryology of learned inquiry.
