IATUL Research Impact Things
by Dr. J. K. Vijayakumar 25 Oct '20

25 Oct '20

The IATUL (International Association of University Libraries) Special Interest Group - Metrics and Research Impact (SIG-MaRI) launched a self-paced professional development program, IATUL Research Impact Things ( https://iatulimpactthings.info/) in Oct 2020. SIG-MaRI invites you to review, reuse, and share this with your colleagues, available openly under a Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license. In the last few years, we saw libraries across the world take on key roles in driving research initiatives, leading to the creation of research support positions and the role of liaison librarians also shifting. The IATUL SIG-MaRI recognized the lack of formal training and development programs to upskill staff transitioning into research support roles and developed the tool to help fill this gap. IATUL member institution the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Library launched the 10 Research Impact Things in 2019 which aimed to develop foundational skills in research impact across the Library based on the bibliometric capabilities framework. The IATUL SIG-MaRI formed a project team led by Curtin University Library, adapted and significantly revised the UNSW program for the broader IATUL members and beyond as a self-paced training and development tool. The program website includes guidance for local organizers (https://iatulimpactthings.info/information-for-programme-organisers/) to adopt and run this program at their institution. You can find out if another institution in your region has run this program before by visiting our community page( https://iatulimpactthings.info/iatul-impact-things-community/) The SIG-MaRI welcome corrections or suggestions to improve the Research Impact Things Program, please submit your feedback via our contact form( https://iatulimpactthings.info/contact/) Please read more about IATUL SIG-MaRI and direct contacts are at - https://www.iatul.org/services/special-interest-groups/sig-mari ---------- Dr. J.
