Publication metrics provide a quantitative approach to the analysis of both publications and researchers and can provide information about the reach and potential impact of your research, as well as inform decisions about where to publish.

This workshop will introduce the benefits and limitations of a number of tools which provide publication metrics for both the individual researcher, research output and for institutional level analysis. It will provide opportunities to discus the importance of the responsible use of bibliometric data and it will also look at the University’s commitment to the responsible use of publication metrics.

By the end of the workshop you will have:

• Considered the benefits and limitations of each metric and understand how to use publication metrics responsibly
