High Value Snippets : allow direct access to CV’s , personal or institutional Web pages enabling a user to decide on mobility status
Medium Value Snippets: point to web pages which don’t allow a user to decide upon home country or host country affiliations: •
Where does a Uruguayan scientist who published an article in 2010 during her post-doc in a French lab live now? In France or in Uruguay?
•
An article in a scientific journal doesn’t contain the information needed to decide upon the mobility status of a person. A CV or a personal Web page generally does.
