Have you ever wondered how Syracuse University research is being discussed in the news, in policy documents, or on social media? Join us for a virtual user training session on Altmetric Explorer and learn more about how altmetrics can help you assess the impact and influence of research beyond traditional citations.
Patty Smith, librarian and Product Specialist from Altmetric, will give an overview of the basics of what alternative metrics are, their purpose, and ways to use them to measure research impact. You will also learn how to navigate the Altmetric Explorer platform and how to search the platform in different ways. You’ll learn to save searches, share reports, and other practical examples of how to leverage altmetrics.
