The Kaleidoscope of Impact: same data, different perspectives, constantly cha...Kudos
Scholars, scientists, academic institutions, publishers and funders are all interested in impact. We have different roles and goals, and therefore different reasons for needing to understand impact; we are therefore asking different questions about impact, and those questions continue to evolve, much as the concept of impact itself is evolving. To answer our different questions, do we need different data, in separate silos, or are we looking at the same data, from different angles? This session gathered researcher, library, publisher and metrics provider perspectives to consider who has an interest in impact, what data they are interested in, how they use it, and how the situation is evolving as e.g. business models and technical infrastructures shift.

Libraries have long sought to demonstrate the value of their collections through a variety of usage statistics. Traditionally, a strong emphasis is placed on high usage statistics when evaluating journals in collection development discussions. However, as budget pressures persist, administrators are increasingly concerned with looking beyond traditional usage metrics to determine the real impact of library services and collections. By examining journal usage in the context of scholarly communication, we hope to gain a more holistic understanding of the use and impact of our library’s resources. In this session, we begin by outlining our methodology for gathering comprehensive publication and citation data for authors affiliated with Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine, utilizing Web of Science as our primary data source and leveraging a custom Python script to manage the data. Using this data we discuss various potential metrics that could be employed to measure and evaluate journals in institutional and field-specific contexts, including but not limited to: number of publications and references per journal, co-citation networks, percentage of references per journal, and increases or decreases of references over time per title. We then consider the development of normalized benchmarks and criteria for creating field-specific core journal lists. We also discuss a process for establishing usage thresholds to evaluate existing journal subscriptions and to highlight potential gaps in the collection. Finally, we apply and compare these metrics to traditional collection development tools like COUNTER usage reports, cost-per-use analysis, Inter-Library Loan statistics and turnaway reports, to determine what correlations or discrepancies might exist. We finish by highlighting some use-cases which demonstrate the value of considering publication and citation metrics, and provide suggestions for incorporating these metrics into library collection development practices.

Presentation by RIN's Director, Michael Jubb, at the Association of Subscription Agents' annual conference in February 2010. http://www.subscription-agents.org/conferences/asa-conference-2010
The needs of researchers in key disciplines are changing rapidly and this has important implications for the library’s role in enhancing research productivity and impact.
Librarians can build a roadmap for supporting 21st Century research needs that draws on both published research sources and institution-specific user research. Several key trends from recent studies and ideas for institution-specific user research tools are highlighted within.
Understanding impact through alternative metrics: developing library-based as...Kristi Holmes
There’s never been a more critical need to better understand the impact of research efforts. The challenging state of funding models (1) and an enhanced pressure on young investigators to stand out from the crowd magnify this need as well as the perceived value of locally based impact services. These services are leveraged by a diverse range of stakeholders, from individuals to university-level decision makers and strategists. Individuals often wish to better demonstrate impact of published works to promotion committees or describe the impact of research studies to funding agencies when applying for funding or complying with institution-level or federal reporting exercises. Research groups, departments, and institutions often wish to discover how research findings are being used to promote science and gain a better overall view of research publications and outputs.
Libraries are particularly well poised to meet the need to understand a more nuanced view of impact. Libraries are trusted, neutral parties with a tradition of service and support and often act as technology hubs on campus with IT and data expertise. Librarians are trained information professionals with information and searching skills and a keen understanding of the research, education, clinical landscape of their institution. This presentation will discuss general trends in the field, including an overview of resources, assessment frameworks and tools; strategies for partnering with stakeholders; and examples of library based service models, from basic services to highly integrated library-based core research units.

Open from beginning to end: addressing barriers to open research - a personal...UoLResearchSupport
Open and reproducible research practises are increasingly recognised as important to scientific integrity. However, there are numerous barriers including research culture - whether as a sector, institution or discipline - lack of training and professional incentives and funding of infrastructure.
On 26 May 2021 Dr Marlene Mengoni was one of two speakers at an event exploring barriers to open research.
Dr Marlene Mengoni is a member of the Institute of Medical & Biological Engineering (IMBE) at the University of Leeds and is interested in theoretical aspects of musculoskeletal tissues biomechanics with a fundamental computational engineering approach.
Speaking from an engineering perspective, Dr Mengoni discussed how the research culture at the University of Leeds can help to foster open research practices, throughout the research cycle, including embedding "open" in research and training.

Sense About Science held a workshop on peer review in collaboration with the Research Information Network, Vitae, Elsevier and the Voice of Young Science.
This afternoon event was held at the University of Sussex, Brighton on 5 March 2010 and was free and for early career researchers in all sciences, engineering and medicine (PhD students, post-docs or equivalent in first job).
The workshop discussed the process of peer review in journal publishing and explored the criticisms of the peer review process. What does peer review do for science? Does it detect fraud and misconduct? Will it illuminate good ideas or shut them down?
The RIN’s Liason and Partnerships Officer, Branwen Hide, spoke at the event on ‘The changing scholarly communications landscape: What does this mean for peer review?’

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

1. What researchers want…….. Michael Jubb Research Information Network Decoding the Digital 27 July 2010
2. 2 Some propositions the volume of research undertaken worldwide has increased, is increasing, and will continue to increase and more of it will be done collaboratively researchers are both producers and consumers of research outputs but they don’t necessarily share the same interests Governments invest in research because they believe it has a positive impact on society and the economy and they want to maximise that impact the costs of research, and of higher education, have increased, are increasing (and ought to be diminished?) cost-effectiveness an increasingly-dominant theme in current economic climate
3. 3 The Role of Information in Research: a crude model defining a set of research questions, issues or problems identifying relevant existing knowledge accessing, analysing, and evaluating existing knowledge and data designing a methodology for generating new knowledge applying the methodology and discovering new knowledge combining old and new knowledge to answer research questions and to enhance understanding disseminating the outcomes of research in a form that is both sustainable and retrievable
7. 7 The Research Process differs even in apparently similar areas of work, and also between teams………
8. 8 Composition of Research Groups big science vs small science small teams typical in life and physical sciences amorphous and overlapping associations with other teams “primary research engagements tend to be local” divisions of expertise, labour and knowledge exchange PI/leader, senior researchers/lecturers, associates, computational specialists, postdocs, PhDs, technicians……… dangers of surveys that look at individual responses divorced from context
10. 10 Content: user expectations and needs published and non-”published” grey literature, reports, working papers data: raw or refined? mine or yours? websites, blogs, wikis, emails quality-assured and non-”quality-assured”? the good-enough source and/or version? pre or post-publication peer review? digital and non-digital perdurance of the book? role of digitisation
11. 11 E-journals are used 98% of titles used in 1o institutions over 4 month period over HE sector as a whole, annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.7%
15. 15 Services: user expectations and needs researchers as creators quality assurance and enhancement distribution and marketing researchers and others as consumers quality assurance search and navigation services access, 24x7 and permanent links and interoperability text mining (published text as data) funders and research institutions assessment and evaluation services
16. 16 Services: usability and sustainability search, navigation and access invigorating competition or wasteful duplication? levels of usage of services provided by publishers and libraries sustainability/preservation of digital content roles of publishers and libraries grey literature, websites, blogs, wikis, emails……. increasing interest in assessment and evaluation services RAE/REF in the UK; ERA in Australia
17. 17 Skills, expertise and competences: user expectations and needs specialist research skills and specialist information skills what’s easy, and what’s not and how that changes ‘information literacy’ approaches and their limitations need for enhanced information professional skills in some areas eg management and communication skills; bibliometrics
18. 18 Skills, expertise and competences:who provides? differences of view as between researchers, librarians and publishers changes in views over time de-skilling, up-skilling and complementarity
19. 19 Some conclusions: users as creators and consumers they are (or should be) the drivers and the value proposition but we are only beginning to understand how they use information resources and services imperfect understanding of the digital information environment; but they want content and services that are quick and simple to use are as comprehensive and interoperable as possible provide for both quality-assured and non-quality-assured content there’s an increasing demand for assessment and evaluation services
