Mendeley: Social Networking for Your Research

Monday, October 22, 2012 - 12:00pm to 1:00pm
Event Description: 

Mendeley is an academic social network and citation manager that helps scholars organize research, collaborate online, and discover the latest research. With Mendeley, faculty and students can create citations and bibliographies, read and annotate papers, and make an online home for their scholarship, accessible anywhere. Through Open Access, scholars can also share and discover relevant research through this social citation tool. University of Pittsburgh's Mendeley Institutional Edition Powered by Swets, brings all of this together and strengthens the library's role as the center of research. 

In this program, you'll learn about the ULS's new Mendeley service, Mendeley Institutional Edition, and how you can use it to benefit knowledge production and sharing. José Luís Andrade, President of the Americas, Swets Information Services, and Sujay Darji, Regional Sales Manager, Swets Information Services, will be on hand to discuss how you can use Mendeley Institutional Edition to increase your research reach and impact. 

Staff from the ULS Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing will also present on the latest developments in Open Access and digital publishing.
