Analyzing scholarly literature using bibliometrics Online
This workshop will provide an introduction to bibliometric methods. Bibliometrics, or the use of tools and statistical methods to analyze published books and articles, can be a useful approach to understanding a body of knowledge and the way researchers are collaborating or publishing work on a topic. We will cover the basics of gathering a dataset for bibliometric analysis using tools like Web of Science and Scopus; provide an overview of software tools for analyzing bibliographic data; and discuss examples of bibliometric analyses across a range of disciplines. The workshop is aimed at graduate students, staff and faculty researchers, but anyone is welcome to join.
