Joining the ‘buzz’ : the role of social media in raising research visibility ...Eileen Shepherd
[This presentation is based on my previous presentation, of the same title, at the LIASA 2014 conference. It was presented as a webinar for LIASA Higher Education Libraries Interest Group on 6/11/2014]
Traditional bibliometric methods of evaluating academic research, such as journal impact factors and article citations, have been supplemented in the past 5-10 years by the development of altmetrics (alternative metrics or article level metrics). Altmetrics measures impact of research, data and publications, such as references in data and knowledge bases, article views, downloads and mentions in social media and news media. This presentation gives a brief background to altmetrics and demonstrates how Rhodes University librarians are using social media to raise the visibility of the research output of their institution. (Rhodes University is in Grahamstown, South Africa)
The document outlines a virtual mission to visit the International Space Station (ISS) through a webquest. Students are split into teams to research the ISS and prepare questions to ask astronauts. The teams include a communications team to liaise with NASA, a management team to track progress and contingencies, a technical team to facilitate displays, and the class reviews their learning at the end.
This document provides tips for using social media and altmetrics to increase the impact and citation rate of scientific publications. It recommends (1) tweeting about papers within 3 days with relevant hashtags and links, (2) uploading outputs to repositories like Figshare and Slideshare to passively generate traffic, and (3) working with communications teams to promote outputs through blogs, media coverage, and social media. Monitoring tools like Impactstory and Google Scholar can track a publication's citations and discussions online over time.

Information Literacy: Working Outside the Curriculum to Work Your Way InAmanda Binder
The librarians developed a series of drop-in library workshops and tours to reach more students, especially online and transfer students, after research found many were not utilizing library resources. They started with one general workshop and expanded the offerings over time, adding separate online/on-campus materials and subject-specific sessions. Surveys found students found the sessions helpful for learning library services and most had not received prior instruction. Based on feedback, activities were added and the librarians will partner with a Freshman Seminar course in the fall.
WorldCat Local Lists is a tool that helps faculty connect students to library resources through course-specific lists. It allows faculty to centralize required readings and other course materials. Students can use the lists to find resources for assignments and create lists of their own potential sources. The lists provide direct access to online resources and interlibrary loan requests. Faculty report that the lists make it easier to direct students to materials and collect sources from different databases in one place. The tool is being tested in the spring 2012 semester and some faculty are having students create lists of potential research sources.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
