RILAS: Applying for a research grant? Library support for your application

With the next ARC and NHMRC funding rounds opening in early 2014, many researchers at the University of Melbourne will be preparing applications. The Research Impact Library Advisory Service (RILAS) can assist researchers to determine the impact of their publications and other research outputs for the purposes of grant applications. RILAS can provide a written ‘Research Citation and Impact Report’, which includes citation counts and journal impact metrics from Thomson’s Web of Science and Scopus’ SciMago Journal Reports (SJR). This will help you to determine:

• How often you are cited
• Where you are cited
• The impact of your creative output
• The impact measures for key journals
• Your h-index.

The service preferably requires two-weeks delivery time. Contact rilas-library@lists.unimelb.edu.au for assistance, and for more information visit the RILAS webpage.
