The library provides support and training for a variety of situations where the impact and visibility of research is being examined. The main focus of the training is on communicating the importance of key researcher identifiers and profiles, and raising awareness of the principles of responsible researcher evaluation.
We will advise researchers on the use of publication metrics and the principles of responsible scientific publishing. Typically, publication metrics means:
- Bibliometrics: scientific publication activity, the most cited publications and the linkages between citing articles.
- Altmetrics: research visibility in social media and other online platforms.
- Datametrics: impact and visibility of research data.
We provide support and training in creating an ORCID researcher ID and the Researcher's Profile Tool on Research.fi, as well as advice on other visibility services.
For more information, see our guide on Research impact and visibility.
We offer publication metric services for the management of higher education community, faculties, education units, research groups and for the Tampere University Hospital, according to principles of responsibility and openness. We produce bibliometric reports for different purposes, e.g. to monitor the impact of research publications, support funding applications and recruitment processes.
Please contact us at lib.metrics@tuni.fi and let's plan together what we can offer you!
