Focusing Discovery and Awareness: The Use of RIM Systems for Internal and External Research Communication Initiatives
Loading...
Focusing Discovery and Awareness_2023 EFS Presentation
Description
A common use case of research information management systems is the ability to increase discovery and awareness of research output and other scholarly activities of faculty and researchers via the usage of a central portal. Beyond the provided means of indexing and showcasing people and outputs, institutions may want to use the RIM system to "connect the dots" to particular research communication initiatives or research campaigns within their organization via the content provided within their RIM portals. Whether through the increased awareness of internal strategic research goals (such as research health communities) or through broader research initiatives (such as Open Access Week or Breast Cancer Awareness Month), institutions want to be able to showcase and highlight the diversity and complexity of their organization's research focuses. This panel presentation will bring together several academic institutions and research institutes to highlight the use of the RIM system as a major driver for strategic research communication campaigns. Presenters will describe how their institutions have used their systems to showcase these initiatives and present potential opportunities for additional research communication practices and organizational stakeholders that can benefit from the RIM system and portal capabilities.
