I could go to the meeting but since I will be running from appointment to appointment that day (because I am also involved in the European Chapter) I would be happy if there would be a "back-up-person". Best Isabella Von: Sigmet-officers [mailto:sigmet-officers-bounces at asis.org] Im Auftrag von Larivi?re Vincent Gesendet: Dienstag, 30. September 2014 20:06 An: sigmet-officers at asis.org Betreff: [Sigmet-officers] Slide and attendance at First Time Attendee Program Hi All, We need to 1) provide ASIST with a slide that describe SIGMET for the New Member/First Time Attendee Program on Sunday, November 2nd, at 12 noon, and 2) find a volunteer to attend the meeting Attached the slide (any comments welcomed - that is a slightly modified version of what had been used in the past). However, I cannot attend as I only arrive in Seattle on the AM of the 4th. Does anyone can attend the meeting?

Message-ID: <047272D289C1D14C9D54551BFDF8DE3839C6056E@cirdan.zbw-nett.zbw-kiel.de> +++Apologies for cross-posting+++ SIGMet, the Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) Special Interest Group for the measurement of information production and use, sponsors a panel on "Informetrics, Bibliometrics, Altmetrics: What Is It All About?" (https://www.asis.org/asist2014/program.html) at this year's ASIS&T Annual Meeting in Seattle. The aim of this panel is to discuss major informetric topics including the impact factor, the h-index, sources of citation data, the Eigenfactor, the making and use of base maps of science, application of bibliometrics, altmetrics, and future perspectives on bibliometrics. Reasonable applications, newly emerging alliances with other information services and pitfalls of bibliometric analyses will also be presented. The panel is particularly aimed at the general audience without extensive informetric knowledge. The panellists are Judit Bar-Ilan (Bar-Ilan University, Israel), Gali Halevi (Elsevier), Stefanie Haustein (University of Montr?al, Canada), Andrea Scharnhorst (Data Archiving and Networked Services Institution, Netherlands), and Jevin West (University of Washington, USA). Isabella Peters (ZBW Leibniz Information Centre for Economics, Germany) chairs the panel discussion. To be able to adequately address the audience's needs and give it a better chance of taking an active role in the panel discussion we invite ASIS&T AM attendees (and people who cannot attend) to get in touch with panellists, discuss aspects or post questions of general interest before the panel takes place. Hence, we provide several backchannels to reach the panellists. You can find all information on the panel on following website: http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGMET/activities/panel2014/ Here, bibliometric use cases are presented that serve as pegs on which to hang on the panel discussion. Also, the panellists introduce their main arguments and expertise on the use cases on the website. Please post your comment on the use cases on figshare: http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.1209574 (you might want to download the slides from figshare to be able to fully read the slides). You can also direct your tweets to the panellists by using #sigmetpanel14 or @sig_met. We hope that we can foster more audience-related discussions in Seattle which will even include perspectives of people who are not able to attend. As such the panel's accompanying website (http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGMET/activities/panel2014/), the figshare site (http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.120957) and Twitter (#sigmetpanel14, @sig_met) will provide room for exchange and will transport bibliometrics topics to the conference and back to the broader audience. We are looking forward to reading your contributions and to seeing you in Seattle!
