What is Research Information Management (RIM) The aggregation, curation, & utilization of metadata about research activities Overlapping terms: CRIS (Current Research Information System) RNS (Research Networking System) RPS (Research Profiling System) FAR (Faculty Activity Reporting) RIMs are not independent researcher profile systems like Research Gate or Academia.edu RIM ≠ Research Data Management (RDM) What do you call it at your institution? Rebecca Bryant Academic Libraries & CRIS, euroCRIS Members Meeting, Dublin May 2017
Why discuss RIM? Increasingly networked environment made possible through changes in scholarly communications infrastructure Greater ability to aggregate and reliable exchange information Opportunity to be intentional about interoperability & reuse Widespread RIM adoption internationally, with growing library engagement Rebecca Bryant Academic Libraries & CRIS, euroCRIS Members Meeting, Dublin May 2017
What information may be included in RIM? And where does it come from? Rebecca Bryant Academic Libraries & CRIS, euroCRIS Members Meeting, Dublin May 2017
