Journal Impact Assessment: Theory and Sources

Tuesday, April 16th 1:00 p.m.-1:45 p.m.

Impact factor and citation rates are widely discussed, but how are they determined? This workshop will include an overview of the widely recognized Journal Impact Factor, as well as the Eigenfactor score and the Google Scholar journal metrics, two alternative methods for measuring the relative impact of individual journal titles.

All classes are free and open to students, staff and faculty. Reservations are not required, but space is limited. To reserve a space please email cud-ref@luc.edu. For more information visit: http://libraries.luc.edu/classes/calendar .
