Metrics and Impact Core
(MIC)
The Metrics and Impact Core (MIC), housed in Galter Library, has expertise in
bibliometrics, data visualization, continuous improvement, information
systems and alternative metrics. The core provides extensive advisory
services for researchers, groups or departments on topics such as:
developing successful publishing strategies
managing or tracking publications
maintaining an impactful online identity
measuring or assessing research impact by discipline
communicating research impact to audiences
MIC uses a wide collection of resources, including Scopus, Web of Science,
Google Scholar, NU Scholars, Journal Citation Reports, and more, to provide
services and reports for:
Researchers or clinicians to demonstrate impact of published works
to promotion or tenure committees, or the impact of research studies to
funding agencies when applying for funding
Research groups/institutions/departments to discover how research
findings are being used to promote science, or an overall view of
research publications and outputs by a specific group
Our upcoming Research Impact Guide will provide information on bibliometric
analysis, alternative metrics, research impact analysis, information
visualization, evaluation frameworks, and more. Also, check out our Galter
Classes (http://galter.northwestern.edu/classes) page to learn more about or
request courses.
