6. 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

7. 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

Academic Libraries & CRIS, euroCRIS Members Meeting, Dublin May 2017

And where does it come from?

15. Why work together euroCRIS has experience and expertise
RIM/CRIS is global
OCLC has global reach particularly beyond Europe
MoU between euroCRIS & OCLC being finalised
Survey : build on joint Eunis/euroCRIS 2015 survey 84 reponses from 20 countries - largely in Europe
CRIS-IR infrastructure and trends .. so fairly technical

33. Digital Research Services : what we do
What do I have to do?
Can I please use one system?
Great … I can reuse the information
Great … I can see all my stuff together
Wow.. It’s been downloaded how many times?
Yes - please can I have a DOI for my paper’s data
