NOTICE: ROOM CHANGE to CLOUGH 152 (Auditorium in Clough, 1st floor)

Attending this workshop will help you with:

• Understanding scholarly publishing
• Preparing articles and the review process
• Enhancing the visibility of your work

The workshop is facilitated by Joe d’Angelo,  the Publisher for the Civil Engineering journals at Elsevier.  He works on structural engineering, building physics, construction materials and fire engineering titles at Elsevier. He’s recently been focusing on a number of newly launched Open Access case study publications aimed at publishing the work of applied researchers and practitioners in civil engineering. Joe has over six years of STM publishing experience and previously held positions at Nature Publishing Group and Earthscan. His areas of interest include knowledge sharing between research and industry and the impact of research outside of academia.

In October, 2013, Joe published a new Open Access journal “Case Studies in Fire Safety.”
Case Studies in Fire Safety is part of a series of “Case Studies in…” open access journals published by Elsevier within the field of engineering. Journals in the series follow the article based publishing model, allowing for immediate publication of final version of a paper without waiting for other articles to be ready to compile a full issue.

VantagePoint is a powerful text-mining tool for discovering knowledge in text databases. It helps you quickly understand and navigate through large volumes of text-based information, giving you a better way to view your information and turn your information into knowledge. Multiple Science, Technology & Innovation (STI) data resources provide a potent opportunity to enhance university research, helping to address such issues as:

•             What facets of this technology development are especially hot?

•             What is on the cutting edge in my area of interest so I can be sure my focus is novel?

•             Who else at my or another university is doing research related to mine?

•             Are there applications for my research outside its current area?

•             Who is citing my research and what are they doing?

•             For my interdisciplinary proposal, which local university resources should I include?

VantagePoint – Part One - Introduction (Application overview, importing data, cleaning data)

Friday, January 22

1:00 – 4:00 PM

VantagePoint – Part Two - Analyzing data (Lists, Co-occurrence matrices, Maps)

Friday, January 29
