Show & Tell: How university libraries use Altmetric and Dimensions for data-driven approaches to collection development, research trends identification and faculty impact analysis
Conference Track
6. Scholarly Communication & Library Publishing
Abstract
Embark on a practical exploration of how university libraries employ Altmetric and Dimensions through three insightful case studies. First, we'll delve into how these tools inform collection development decisions, offering a nuanced, data-driven approach to journal subscriptions. Next, we'll navigate faculty impact analysis, demonstrating quantifiable measurement of the influence of academic contributions both in and outside of academia. Finally, we'll identify institution research trends and potential opportunities. Join us for a grounded discussion on the tangible ways data-driven strategies enhance library practices, providing librarians with valuable insights for informed decision-making in their daily roles.
