This document discusses the role of library and information professionals in utilizing altmetrics. It begins by defining altmetrics as a new way to measure and communicate research that goes beyond traditional citations. It then outlines the research process and how professionals can get involved at various stages, such as publishing, disseminating, and measuring research. The document encourages professionals to understand researchers' needs, demystify altmetrics tools, and provide training. It also presents a case study where training researchers on social media led to more engagement and higher altmetric scores. In summary, the document argues that professionals are well-suited for involvement in altmetrics due to skills in communication, measurement, and working with researchers.
The first in our Tech Assessment Program for nonprofits, this hands-on workshop focused on moving from strategy-creation to learning social media tactics.
Digital Storytelling Tools for Nonprofit OrganizationsDebra Askanase
New digital tools are emerging every day, making it easier for your nonprofit to tell its story online. From curation to publishing, if you’re looking to share a story, there’s an app, website or tool that can help you do it. This presentation covers the principles of good storytelling, provide examples of successful nonprofit digital storytelling, and reviews both the popular as well as some of the more unusual-but-useful online storytelling tools including PicMonkey, Visual.ly, ThingLink, Storify, mapping, Dippity, Vine, Animoto, and others.
50 Shades of Social Media: Navigating Policies, Laws, and Ethics Debra Askanase
Do you struggle with what you (and your colleagues) can and should say, or how you should respond to situations using social media? In this presentation for the Nonprofit Technology Conference, we consider real-world situations, walk through five ethical frameworks you may use to resolve social media conundrums, and look at ways to integrate ethical considerations into your social media policies, training, and practices. This presentation also walks through the case study of Phonedog v. Kravitz, a case involving who owns Twitter followers, and social media policy do's, don'ts, and supporting resources.
This presentation was developed and presented at the 2014 Nonprofit Technology Conference by Debra Askanase (Community Organizer 2.0, National Brain Tumor Society), Farra Trompeter (Big Duck), Carly Leinheiser (Perlman and Perlman), and Ashley Lusk (Threespot). The presentation design was created by Threespot.

Altmetrics Day Workshop - Internet Librarian International 2014Andy Tattersall
Altmetrics in the Academy - Implementing strategies in the library for better academic engagement, dissemination and measurement
Workshop abstract:
Altmetrics are increasingly gaining support and interest as an alternative way of disseminating and measuring scholarly output. Championed by early career researchers, librarians and information professionals, Altmetrics are to research as MOOCs are to learning. Like MOOCs most still do not understand their potential or how they could fit with or replace existing modes of delivery and assessment.
The first half of the workshop will help delegates gain an understanding of what Altmetrics are and how they can fit within academic library services. The second half of the session will deliver case studies, tools and techniques to help LIS professionals encourage better usage of Altmetrics.
10:00: What do you want from the day? What are your experiences of Altmetrics
10.40am: Altmetrics: an overview or Altmetrics and the day/where are we now?
A history, roadmap, how it fits in
11 am: Altmetrics within institutions: data, IR integration/other tools/library catalogue integration
what data is there? coverage of articles/datasets/other research outputs, mendeley demographic data
case studies of uses
examples of IR integration/motivations
primo/summon/other ones..
altmetric for institutions - integration with existing platforms
free explorer (and we’ll explore the data using this later)
11.30 Break
12.00pm Altmetrics in the Academy - getting academics and librarians on board
12.40 Brainstorming session: Value in Altmetrics: what questions do people have around this? what are their biggest concerns?
13.00 Lunch
2 pm: Getting familiar with the tools - practical session experimenting with the Altmetric explorer - half an hour (set tasks - eg create a list, pull out the most interesting mentions)
Good practice, guidelines, tips
2:45pm: At the coal face - experiences of a researcher using Altmetrics in practice
3.30pm: Break
3.45 pm: Getting mobile, how using mobile apps can help you engage more with Altmetrics
4.05 pm What’s on the horizon? What does the future for scholarly dissemination and impact.
4.40 wrap up and questions
NeuroDevNet NCE in collaboration with York University's KMb Unit reviewed and assessed existing guides for researchers to use social media for dissemination of research finding and engaging with their stakeholders (end users). The guides are ranked from beginner to advanced, and are presented in an annotated bibliography format which also indicates platforms/tools reviewed in each guide.

In this workshop, adressed to P-Sphere project researchers (European Postdoctoral Research Project, Marie S. Curie Actions, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 28th November 2017) I summarised the benefits which can be gained from use of social media (specially blogs, Twitter and other social networks and repositories) to support research activities, and I provided examples of these innovative emerging resources as tools for scientific communication as well as discussed their implications for digital scholarship. Structure of the lecture: Introduction, Altmetrics, It's Europe!, Active listening, Blogging, Microblogging, Networking, Sharing, Health 2.0, Resources, Strategy, The ten commandments, To deepen, Conclusions.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

about Justin Bieber’s Tweets to
his Beliebers
● That using tools like Altmetrics,
Mendeley, Twitter and ImpactStory
will show them where their research
is reaching globally
● Help build case studies to
