From: Ann Connolly <[log in to unmask]> Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2015 12:24:07 -0700 *Apologies for cross-posting* Hi all, In case you missed the session at CNI, we’d like to share our findings: with nearly 400 repositories as a sample group, we looked at how the IR community typically measures progress and compared that with different ranking systems to see how they matched up. The results suggest that we need a new, platform-agnostic framework that allows institutions to measure themselves against their own unique missions and goals. I’d like to invite you to a webinar that considers what this framework might look like: How am I Doing? A Framework for Repository Benchmarking Date: Thursday, July 9th, 2015 Time: 8am Pacific/ 11am Eastern Register here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/2961207281998939906 Date: Thursday, July 9th, 2015 Time: 5pm Pacific/ 8am Hong Kong/ 10am Australia Register here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3051466191571215106 In this webinar, I will propose a model that moves beyond one-size-fits-all ranking and instead focuses on benchmarking, as well as share some numbers from across the community. I hope you can make it! Regards, Ann Ann Connolly Director of Outreach and Scholarly Communication bepress [log in to unmask] www.bepress.com
