SciVal publication metrics consultations
The library offers a consultation service for researchers advising on use of bibliometrics, including SciVal, to showcase areas of research power or in support of strategic priorities, in accordance with the principles of Responsible Metrics. We can provide regular and custom statistics and reports for your school or research group (example reports and infographics).
We also regularly run two workshops on SciVal through our training pathways.
