MyRI Project- Measuring your research impact

DIT Library & Partners Win Funding for Bibliometrics Research
Introducing the MyRI project - Measuring Your Research Impact

This is a collaboration between four academic libraries
and two academic units: UCD Library (project lead); DCU Library; DIT Library; the library at NUI Maynooth; the School of Computer Science & Informatics at UCD; the Department of Geography at Maynooth.

Bibliometrics is used to measure research publications and is one key approach being used to assess research impact. This project will lay the ground for collaborations between the six partners to make best use of expertise, to maximise our research impact.


A successful bid was made for project funding from the NDLR LInCS (National Digital Learning Resources - Learning Innovation Community Support) 2010 programme with the materials available at the end of the year and showcased in the annual NDLR event. We are very pleased with the success of this proposal given the strength of the competition this year - only 12 of 41 submissions were accepted.

Digital resources and Teaching and Learning

The National Digital Learning Repository provides services to enable the sharing of digital learning content across all Irish third level institutions.

Visit the NDLR Fest at the Science Gallery, Trinity College Dublin on wednesday April 14th for their annual showcase.

Meet up with academics and stakeholders who collaborated across all subject disciplines to create the new NDLR platform, portal, and see the services in action. The programme includes presentations, showcases and a Q & A session.
