Have you been asked for an ORCID ID when submitting a  manuscript to a journal or in grant submission systems?  Do you have a  common name or have publications under different aliases?   Would you like  to keep track of your research outputs all in one place?  Attend this  workshop to learn more about ORCID IDs and why you should get one, how to  get your free ORCID ID, and how to set up your ORCID profile.

ORCID is increasingly integrated into research systems, including ScienCV.  Some funders (such as the Department of Energy) and publishers (such as  PLOS and Nature), want you to provide your ORCID ID when you submit a  proposal or manuscript.  ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor  Identification. The purpose of ORCID is to disambiguate authors of  scholarly work and to better connect researchers to their research output  and to each other. ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that  distinguishes you from other researchers.

Do you wonder how to select a journal in which to publish or  wonder about the quality of a journal?  This session will demonstrate tools  
to identify potential journals in your field, how to determine impact  factors for journals (Journal Citation Reports, Scimago), how to find where  
a journal is indexed for dissemination, and tools to evaluate the quality of journals.  Reputable, peer-reviewed Open Access journals are on the  rise, but so are “predatory publisher” that charge publication fees but do  little in terms of peer review. Tips and tools to identify legitimate open  access journals and avoid predatory publishers will be covered.  Authors rights will also be covered.

This workshop will cover ways to measure your research impact  including through citation analysis and the H-index through a range of  
tools including Web of Science, Scopus & Google Scholar.  How to create  your own Google Citations profile and new “altmetrics” that examine social  media's role in assessing impact will also be covered.

• creating bibliographies
• exporting citations
• sharing citations with others

Creating a bibliography and correctly citing all your sources is crucial part of the research process that can take a lot of time and attention to detail. Come learn about RefWorks and other citation tools that will allow you to save and organize your research and quickly create bibliographies in any citation style!

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 the guns fell silent and the world's first global conflict -- "The Great War" -- came to an end. One of the most destructive wars in modern history, the conflict resulted in the slaughter of more than 16 million soldiers and civilians. This November UIC will mark the centenary of the end of World War I with 11 days of interdisciplinary conversations and events exploring the war than transformed our contemporary world. 

Join us at the Library of the Health Sciences - Chicago, Special Collections Room 320, for a talk on "The Nurses of World War I," presented by Dr. Gwyneth Milbrath, Clinical Assistant Professor, College of Nursing.
