What is in a name, its said! Well, after attending this excellent and informative session, we all must say - Everything is in a name!
Thank you Dr. Sarika Sawant for the insightful webinar!

The Library of St. Francis Institute of Technology organized a Webinar for all faculties from Engineering Colleges for a Webinar on Enhancing Visibility of Research through Academic Social Networks on 6th June, 2020.

She has an experience of teaching Cataloguing and Reference Theory and Practical paper, Management practical, Internship & Dissertation guidance. I am a research supervisor of 7 PhD students. She has been very instrumental in implementing latest technologies in the course of the young MLIS students. Her innovative ways of teaching and representing her research results has gained her much popularity in all the webinars she has conducted so far.

Research is an integral part of Teacher’s life. In this technology era, we can use social media, various softwares and online tools effectively in order to increase our academic visibility across the globe. We can collaborate, share and enrich ourselves in a systematic way.

The session began with imploring God’s blessings by way of our College Anthem. Dr. Kevin Noronha gave a brief insight about St. Francis Institute of Technology. Ms. Chinmayee Bhange introduced the speaker to all the participants.

Dr. Sawant effectively demonstrated the correct and uniform use of one’s initials or name on all academic social platforms such as Research Gate, ORCID, Google Scholar. She correctly elaborated on the importance of citation and citation styles for all engineering faculties. She explained the difference between Self Citation and Plagiarism.

Ms. Jovita Serrao handled the queries and the Question and Answer session very minutely.
