[GOAL] Measuring the Impact of Scholarship: Two Upcoming Webinars, 9/29 and 10/6

Hi all,

Impact is a frequently used, but rarely defined term. This is especially
true in the field of open access and scholarly communication. What do we
mean when we talk about the impact of open access? What do we measure and
why?

We’d like to invite you to join us for two upcoming webinars that look at
impact from different angles:

Title: Connecting the Dots: Scholarly Impact and the Institutional Mission
Date/time: Thursday, September 29, 2016 at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern

Title: Open Access: 100 Stories of Impact
Date/time: Thursday, October 6, 2016 at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern
Register here
<https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/8391044308801079811>

In the first webinar, “Connecting the Dots: Scholarly Impact and the
Institutional Mission,” I’ll share how libraries are aligning the impact of
their repository initiatives with larger institutional goals such as
recruitment and retention, increasing funding, and raising the visibility
of the institution and its experts.

In the second webinar, “Open Access: 100 Stories of Impact,” Senior
Outreach Associate Promita Chatterji will discuss a framework for
understanding the impact of open access through a consideration of
individual stories.

We hope you can join us!

Regards,
Ann
