The BRI CoP Article Club is a regular, discussion-based gathering focused on exploring key literature in bibliometrics, scientometrics, and research impact. At each meeting, participants come together for an informal and collegial discussion around a selected article or document chosen for its relevance and interest. Attendees are encouraged to read the material in advance, allowing for deeper, more meaningful exchange and shared learning on topics that are often complex. To receive invitations to upcoming Article Club meetings and related communications, please contact Philippe Boisvert at . Readings from past meetings can be found through the community’s shared Zotero library.
