Library Guide - Research Impact and Publishing

The impact and influence of scholarly publications such as journal articles and books can be measured in a variety of ways. Metrics, such as the number of citations, can be used in grant and job applications to demonstrate the impact of a researcher's publications and research.
The Monash Library has launched an online Research Impact and Publishing guide which provides an overview of commonly used metrics, and advice about developing a publishing strategy:


  • Article Impact What metrics measure the impact of an individual article?
  • Book Impact What metrics measure the impact of a book?
  • Publishing  What should I consider when developing a publishing strategy?
  • Open Access What it is, what versions can be made openly available and what policies exist?
