Kudos, the service for maximising the reach and impact of research publications, has announced that the University of Manchester is the latest institution to sign up for Kudos for Institutions, which provides research tools and intelligence to help universities maximise dissemination of research.
Kudos is part of the University of Manchester Library's "Beyond Compliance" initiative, which is exploring the feasibility of supporting authors beyond fulfilling the basic dissemination requirements expected by research funders, by implementing proactive, best-of-breed approaches to creating, broadening and tracking research impact.
By channeling researchers' communications about their work through a central system, and mapping these actions against a range of metrics, Kudos provides institutions with deep, actionable insight into the most effective ways to increase publication impact. Its reports and tools uniquely enable institutions to understand, amplify and support researchers' efforts to improve the performance of their work. The system currently has over 180,000 users across more than 10,000 institutions, and is growing by approximately 1,000 users per week.
