The presentation introduces about the research support services in Libraries and Learning Services of the University of Auckland in using SciVal as an effective tool to visualise research performance for staff and researchers in the Faculty of Engineering.

Data was collected through pre and post student and teaching staff surveys, weekly student reflective journals, and an informal interview with the course co-ordinator and one of the lecturers. Learning Analytics data from the CourseBuilder site was also collated and analysed.

In the last three evaluation rounds (conducted in 2003, 2006 and 2012), Subject Librarians mostly answered queries relating to research impact metrics based on individual requests from researchers. The service was inconsistent between faculties in supporting researchers and their PBRF submissions at the University of Auckland. This paper presents the University Library’s new initiative to provide specialised services for PBRF across all faculties. The Library has identified multiple resources required to support University success in the PBRF process and has formalised the University’s PBRF support services for the 2018 evaluation round. This paper also shares the preparation and practices of PBRF Specialist Subject Librarians b...

Subject librarians collaborated with academic staff to improve the integration of research skills into a core first year engineering course by changing the mode of delivery from face-to-face only, to a blended model. The change in research skills delivery was concurrent with a move from summative to formative assessment methods within the course and a change in institutional learning management system (LMS). These changes allowed subject librarians to deliver content in a sustainable way that ensured a positive student experience given the predicted growth in enrolments in engineering.
