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?
