Working on your promotion and tenure packet? Perhaps your third year review? Contact the Health Sciences Library to save you time.

Your subject librarian can gather the relevant metrics to show the impact and quality of your work. These metrics can include traditional metrics like impact factor and acceptances rates, and non-traditional metrics like almetrics. (Not all journals will have impact factors, so non-traditional metrics are a good alternative to consider when establishing the quality and impact of your work.)

To get the process started, email us for a consultation to discuss what metrics you need for your P&T materials, as well as other services available to you.
