report on their Impacts.
Training continues with just a few sessions left. Dont wait until the last minute!

CVs we are caught up on uploading faculty CVs into Digital Measures (except for publications). Send your CV to
dmcv@purdue.edu if you want us to upload it for you. Send the full document or a 5 year dossier.
PublicationsTwo-step process:
We are using Web of Science to update your publications on the web if you had no pubs in FAIR. If you had pubs in FAIR,
those are the ones youll see in Digital Measures.
When we get your new CV, we will compare the Web of Science/FAIR upload to your CV and fill in anything thats missing.
OR you can go to the Intellectual Contributions portion of Digital Measures and upload your own pubs using Google
Scholar. LET US KNOW YOU HAVE DONE THIS SO THAT WE DONT ERASE YOUR WORK.
For help with Digital Measures: Contact dmhelp@purdue.edu and you will hear back from Dawn Parks.
