The library has just purchased two new titles about academic publishing and research metrics.
They give an overview of the main tools for measuring impact and a summary of main issues and terminology in academic publishing. These titles were recommended in the London School of Economics and Political Sciences’ Impact Blog.
Both titles are ebooks, so they can be accessed from anywhere:
https://capitadiscovery.co.uk/bournemouth-ac/items/1056481 – Measuring research: what everyone needs to know.
https://capitadiscovery.co.uk/bournemouth-ac/items/1056480 – Scholarly communication: what everyone needs to know.
Happy reading!
