[This presentation is based on my previous presentation, of the same title, at the LIASA 2014 conference. It was presented as a webinar for LIASA Higher Education Libraries Interest Group on 6/11/2014] Traditional bibliometric methods of evaluating academic research, such as journal impact factors and article citations, have been supplemented in the past 5-10 years by the development of altmetrics (alternative metrics or article level metrics). Altmetrics measures impact of research, data and publications, such as references in data and knowledge bases, article views, downloads and mentions in social media and news media. This presentation gives a brief background to altmetrics and demonstrates how Rhodes University librarians are using social media to raise the visibility of the research output of their institution.
