Turitea academic staff - to assist with the compilation of your Evidence Portfolios the Library has developed a set of bibliometric tools. These can be used to create a surprisingly detailed picture of the progress of a piece of academic work after it has been published.

If you have not attended one of the earlier sessions which gave an overview of these, or if you have used the profiling tools but would like further help, then the Turitea Library will be running a number of follow-up sessions. Please note that the first 30 minutes of each session consists of a presentation. After this staff will be available to assist you with the profiling tools - you can stay on after the session, or drop in any time after the first 30 minutes at a time that suits you. Bookings are not required.

When:
Tues 20th Sept 2 - 4 p.m.
Thurs 22nd Sept 9.30 – 11.30 a.m.
Tues 27th Sept 9.30 – 11.30 a.m.
Wed 28th Sept 2 - 4 p.m.

Where: Training Room 1, Level 2, Turitea Library.

Please bring the correct details of any publications you wish to work on.

If you have any questions about the sessions please email libcol@massey.ac.nz

The 1 October deadline for draft Evidence Portfolios is drawing closer. Over recent months many staff have attended the various PBRF clinics and open days hosted by Research Management Services and been introduced to the use of citation analysis as a means of demonstrating the influence and impact of their research outputs. The Library has developed a set of bibliometric tools which can be used to create a surprisingly detailed picture of the progress of a piece of academic work after it has been published.

If you have not attended one of these sessions, or if you have used the profiling tools but would like further help, then the Turitea Library will be running a number of follow-up sessions. These will take the form of short introductory presentations for those new to the idea of bibliometric evidence, followed by the opportunity to work through your own publications with library staff.

When:

Tues 23 August 9.30-11.30am

Weds 24th August 2.00-4.00 pm

Tues 30th August 2.00-4.00 pm

Thurs 1 Sept 9.30-11.30am
