What are meaningful research metrics and how are they supported by today’s academic libraries? In this webcast, we review the topic of scholarly impact measurement, including current trends related to bibliometrics, altmetrics and research impact in general. Emphasis will be placed on major tools available to scholars and librarians, as well as special discussions, controversies and developments within the growing field of altmetrics. Participants will be given an opportunity to discuss and reflect on their own institutional needs and efforts, particularly around the role librarians can and do play in support of successful impact measurement.Questions and interaction are both expected and encouraged.

Apr'15: Digital Scholarship: New Metrics, New Modes (Library Juice Academy)
April 6 to May 1st, 2015
http://libraryjuiceacademy.com/031-scholarship-metrics.php
$175
The Web enables new means of publishing and sharing knowledge, but our tools for evaluating the rigor of scholarly research have not kept pace with these possibilities. Bibliometrics has not yet gone digital, but signs of change are emerging. By the end of this four week course, participants will have a thorough grounding in dominant metrics for evaluating scholarly rigor, as well as some promising alternates that improve upon shortcomings of the status quo. Examples of how to apply each metric will be presented, supplemented by guest talks or podcasts from the people developing new tools. For the final project, class participants will apply what they've learned to a collection development challenge at their own institutions; or utilize the concepts presented to propose a theory for new modes of scholarly communication.
