Colleagues/

Collaborative platforms and social networking websites are becoming popular
with scientists and researchers around the world: scholars can connect
between institutions, countries and disciplines easily, faster and better
than ever before. "The Individual and Scholarly Networks" will explore two
aspects of this phenomenon; firstly, how the connections are forming, and
how attitudes may change to adapt to the new environment, and, secondly,
how connections can be evaluated, nuanced and measured.

The seminar will take place on Tuesday, January 22nd 2013 and will be
webcast live from New York, Amsterdam and Oxford. It will be split into two
segments:

Part 1: Building Networks | 8:00-10:00 EST / 13:00-15:00 GMT

This session will focus on the ways in which these relationships are formed
and maintained, and how they are changing the nature of scholarly
relationships.

Part 2: Evaluating Network Relationships | 10:30-12:30 EST / 15:30-17:30 GMT

Altmetrics is one of the most explosive areas of interest in bibliometric
analysis and is increasing in importance. This session will explore the
related areas of altmetrics, contributorship and the culture of reference.
