    Web citations: tracking citation impact
    GARNER, JANE ; HORWOOD, LYNNE ; SULLIVAN, SHIRLEY ( 2007)
    This paper discusses the Web Citation Index (WCI) and other options for citation tracking, such as Google Scholar and Scopus. These are tools that can assist researchers to measure the quality of their papers to support the Australian Government’s Research Quality Framework (RQF) requirements. One measure of establishing quality of the research is to indicate metrics, such as the journal impact factor. Another means of establishing peer evaluation is for researchers to be aware of those papers that are citing their own work. This paper provides a commentary about different tools that are available to the research community. Librarians need to know what these tools are to be able to present a comprehensive suite of products to researchers.

    Sustainable paths for data-intensive research communities at the University of Melbourne: a report for the Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories
    SHADBOLT, ANNA ; VAN DER KNIJFF, DIRK ; YOUNG, EVE ; WINTON, LYLE ( 2006-08)
    In 2006 the University of Melbourne participated in an eResearch auditing project with the Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories (APSR). The focus of this project was to look at the data management needs of a selection of data intensive research communities at the university. A multidisciplinary team within Information Services documented researcher community activity around research data management, storage and sustainability. Eleven research communities from diverse disciplines were selected including: Applied Economics; Astrophysics; Computer Science and Software Engineering; Education; Ethnography; Experimental Particle Physics; Humanities informatics; Hydrology and Environmental Engineering; Linguistics; Medical informatics; Neuroscience, and the Performing Arts. Project findings provided information about general sustainability issues of data management policies and practices at the university. Recommendations around ICT infrastructure and support needs of eResearchers were proposed for consideration by management.
