Making your research have impact

This presentation will cover:

  • Current citation trends in research and how self-promotion can help in increasing the reach of your published research.
  • The rise of article metrics ('altmetrics'), how to use them to your advantage.
  • Practical ideas and tips on promoting your research.
  • Impact stories from fellow researchers who have employed these ideas, showing what approach has worked for them and what the result has been.

Speaker:
Lyndsey Dixon
Regional Journals Editorial Director, APAC Taylor & Francis



There will be a 10-minute talk by NTU Libraries.

Title:
Choosing the right Altmetrics tools

Description:
Over the last 2 years, NTU Libraries has been evaluating various tools to help a researcher track the online engagement for his research. From our literature review and extensive evaluation of the altmetric tools, we will compare and highlight the key differences between 2 tools (Altmetric.com and Pu.mx) and how to select the "right" altmetric tool for yourself.

Speaker:
Joan Wee
Senior Librarian (New Media Group)
Social Sciences Librarian (Economics)
