Hi,

I am just working through the book in preparation of an introductory course in bibliometrics as part of a MA in LIS. It is a good first introduction for librarians who are new to bibliometrics and/or who are setting up bibliometric services both to get acquainted with the lay of the land and to think of bibliometrics in the context of library services.

Clara

Take a look at

I've not finished reading it, but it looks like it is a really useful introduction to metrics - and is aimed at library staff!
