Hi everyone,

I work in the University of Limerick in Ireland where I have the snappy job title of Research Services & Bibliometrics Librarian. I give workshops and one-to-one consultations on ways to maximise research impact, bibliometrics, altmetrics, ORCID, open access, EndNote and other topics. I find the list very useful for keeping up to date with new developments but this is my first post.

Best regards,

Fintan

Subject: Introducing the new Lis-Bibliometrics Committee

Dear colleagues,

Following expressions of interest late last year, it is with great delight that I can now introduce your new Lis-Bibliometrics Committee. We are:


·         Nathalie Cornee, London School of Economics and Political Science

·         Sally Dalton, University of Leeds

·         Katie Evans, University of Bath

·         Elizabeth Gadd, Loughborough University

·         Stephen Grace, London South Bank University

·         Sam Gray, Manchester Metropolitan University

·         Ruth Harrison, Imperial College London

·         Michael Norris, Loughborough University

·         Charles Oppenheim, University of Northampton

·         Karen Rowlett, University of Reading

We met for the first time last week and have lots of interesting and exciting plans for the group.  Some of the feedback we had from the Lis-Bibliometrics survey last year related to members feeling uncertain about posting to the list because they were unsure who was ‘lurking’  and feared feeling foolish.  In attempt to overcome this, we would like to invite all Lis-Bibliometrics members to introduce themselves and ask about one thing you always wanted to know about bibliometrics but were afraid to ask!  Having met many of you at bibliometrics events over the past few years, I can reassure you that we’re a friendly bunch and are all feeling our way with this.

To give you a taster of some of the things we have planned:


·         A Lis-bibliometrics blog with contributions from the community

·         A related resources page

·         An event (hopefully in June) around the theme of what it means to be a bibliometrician.

If you have any thoughts on these, or other suggestions, please let us know.

And finally, if you are a tweeter and ever tweet about bibliometric matters, why not use the hashtag #LisBibliometrics so we can develop a Twitter community too?

Looking forward to hearing your introductions!

All the best
