What does "research impact" really mean across different disciplines? While STEM researchers might focus on Scopus and h-indices, humanities scholars or interdisciplinary researchers often find their true impact, like policy influence or creative works, completely missed by traditional tracking tools. This panel brings together library colleagues to share their perspectives on how researchers track, evaluate, and communicate their work. Come join a lively, cross-disciplinary conversation about how to bridge the gap between what standard metrics measure and what actually matters in your subject area.
