\u201cWith Dimensions, I don\u2019t waste my time clicking through and switching between databases to find the answers to my questions.\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Identifying reviewers, growing markets & Open Access trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Helen Beddow, Publisher<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helen uses Dimensions daily in two different ways. Through the Reviewer Finder Tool, Helen can quickly identify and invite new reviewers and points out how \u201cbeing able to invite people to review a new book directly from the Dimensions system is fantastic. It is much quicker than other databases I previously used like Scopus or Web of Science.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Helen uses Dimensions to analyse the performance of a specific research topic within its field and in the market as a whole. \u201cAs a Publisher,\u201d she notes, \u201cthis helps me to quickly identify research growth areas and understand how Open Access content is developing within the social sciences.\u201d Helen adds \u201cI also like to track the funding happening with a specific topic.\u201d This kind of information feeds directly into Helen\u2019s publishing strategy by helping her to identify gaps in the market and where she needs to focus her efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aidan Morrison, Publisher<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aidan is a fan of the analytical power delivered through Dimensions and notes how \u201cit is essential for my work that I have all the information in one single database. With Dimensions, I don\u2019t waste my time clicking through and switching between databases to find the answers to my questions.\u201d In his role, Aidan regularly uses the Fields of Research filter in Dimensions to identify topics or articles which are gaining traction fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He shares: \u201cThe Fields of Research filter is a great classification tool that other databases don\u2019t use.\u201d To understand more about whether his journal content resonates with a broader audience, Aidan often deep dives into funding and policy documents to see where and how his journal content is having an impact, noting \u201cI love that I can access funding and policy information within Dimensions. It isn\u2019t available in other databases, but this information is critical to understand the wider use of published research in context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep diving to feed Open Access strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mike Burrows, Open Research Team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mike is primarily involved in market research and analytics for the Open Access team at Emerald Publishing. Mike shares \u201cDimensions helps me every day to understand Open Access publishing trends. Drilling down deep into the data helps me to establish our overall Open Access strategy for Emerald Publishing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mike explains how using Dimensions helps the team to quickly understand which regions have Open Access mandates or which institutes have funding for Open Access articles and are therefore more interested in Open Access publishing. He adds: \u201cThis research helps to feed our strategy in securing Open Access publishing agreements or inviting new content from authors in these areas or at these institutes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benchmarking analysis & bibliometrics research<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Naseem Yar, Market Insight Analyst<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naseem is a Dimensions superuser within Emerald Publishing. She regularly uses the Dimensions platform to perform key market benchmarking analyses and bibliometrics research which then feed into critical strategies across the company. \u201cWhether I am looking at Open Access trends across publishers, Sustainable Development Goals or publisher contributions to policy documents, I turn to Dimensions to help me answer my questions,\u201d Naseem shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe combination of Altmetrics and Dimensions data is incredibly powerful in supporting our strategy of looking at how research is making an impact outside of academia.\u201d<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
