Date: Thursday, June 15, 2023
Time: 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. ET

Registration

How can we tell the story of our research beyond the usual counts and rankings? This session will demonstrate one tool that can be used to visualise patterns in research collaboration and research topics. For this example, we will look at existing collaborative relationships both within a faculty and with outside faculties, institutions or companies. We will also look at topic trends in the publication record with the use of co-occurrence maps of author-assigned keywords associated with our publications.

Invited Speaker: Alison Henry (MLIS) is the Collections Strategies Librarian at the University of Alberta.
