University libraries are partnering with campus administrators, departments, and groups on providing bibliometric and research impact services and metrics. Research impact data is being used as an assessment tool for measuring faculty and research group productivity; in promotion and tenure processes; in grant and funding applications; and in program and institution reviews and rankings. Libraries have the tools and expertise to assist in the gathering, organization, and visualization of research impact indicators and measures. The introduction of various bibliometric and database tools and APIs has provided libraries with the ability to responsibly extract a variety of research impact measures including publication, citation, co-authorship, H-Index, journal impact metrics, awards, and grant and patent activity. The University of Illinois Library has developed a system for generating dynamic and interactive visualizations and dashboards for displaying research impact data at the individual faculty, department, and research group level. This presentation will describe the elements of the Illinois research visualization system and look at the relationships between the various available research indicators, including providing correlation analyses.
