Dear colleagues, BIBLIOMETRICS IN PRACTICE - A LIS BIBLIOMETRICS EVENT 27th June, Manchester Metropolitan University We are delighted to invite all our members to join us in Manchester for a one-day networking event focused around the practicalities of the wonderful world of bibliometrics. "Bibliometrics in Practice" presents a wide range of perspectives on how to use metrics more effectively in your day-to-day working life. As well as all the usual benefits associated with networking at a LIS Bibliometrics event you will also take away practical hints and tips that will help you to improve your skills and confidence. You'll hear from experienced speakers including librarians, academics and research officers who will all reflect on what works well and what to avoid when using bibliometrics.
