The Big Picture: Sources of Research Metrics IRIS Institutional Research Information System web-based system that enables researchers and academic staff to create, update and maintain their own web profiles/CV s and showcase their research expertise and research achievements to a global audience Links to WOS automatically Scopus - bibliographic database containing abstracts and citations for over 60m academic journal articles since 1996. Encompasses over 21.5k peer reviewed journals and 130k books. Scopus offers author profiles which cover affiliations, number of publications and their bibliographic data, references, and details on the number of citations each published document has received. Ensure you use a consistent Author name/ID SciVallinks to profiles in Scopus. Can combine profiles into Schools, Research Groups and present visual research performance, benchmark relative to peers, develop collaborative partnerships and analyze research trends at an institutional or department or subject level. Incites based on Web of Science (WOS) similar to Scopus but more scientific and uses a different database of journals. Web of Science encompasses over 50,000 scholarly books, 12,000 journals and 160,000 conference proceedings Altmetrics: measure of online engagement and impact/reach of a paper/person. non- traditional metrics proposed as an alternativeto more traditional citation impact metrics - Based off a very broad group of metrics (eg. Viewed, Discussed, Saved, Cited, Recommended) capturing alternative measures of impact a paper or work can have. Altmetric tracks a range of sources to capture and collate this activity.
