  1. Where do bibliometricians come from? 🤔 A new international study suggests a simple answer: mostly from academic libraries. Around 60% of people doing bibliometric work at universities are based there.

    :doi: doi.org/10.1177/01655515261417

    The catch? Over 70% say they never had formal training in bibliometrics. People simply grow into the role while working with databases, indicators and research analytics.

  2. 📣 Tomorrow plan to join us to learn how to gather citation metrics and explore altmetrics in Digital Science platforms (e.g. Dimensions, Symplectic Elements, Altmetric)

    📊 We’ll cover searching for publications, people, and research organizations so that you can find key metrics (citation counts, FCR, news + policy mentions) and export data for visualization.

  4. This is a very welcome move for those of us critical of over-reliance on metrics for the evaluation of research quality and impact. It's in keeping with the responsible metrics movement and the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA).
