London Info International in collaboration with Clarivate Analytics has announced a webinar - How has the concept of being "citable" evolved?' The event is scheduled for July 12, 15.00 CEST, 14.00 BST, 9.00 EST.
When the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) first released in 1975, the concept of being 'citable' was introduced in the context of assessing a journal's performance impact, specifically the Journal Impact Factor (JIF) metric. How has the concept of being 'citable' evolved since then?
Paul Wouters, Director of the Centre for Science and Technology Studies and Professor of Scientometrics at the University of Leiden, will provide an authoritative perspective on how being 'citable' has evolved over the last few decades, in part as a consequence of the Web of Science, and in part based upon developments in the increasing importance placed by funders of research as well as university administration, on the measurement of research impact.
This webinar will be moderated by Philip Ditchfield. Interested parties may visit http://bit.ly/12julycitable to register for the event.
