The International Centre for Guidance Studies, University of Leicester and the Research Information Network have recently published, “Social Media: A guide for researchers”. The guide was produced to give researchers a basic understanding of this rapidly evolving phenomena, and applications for use within the research realm.
Through this guide, researchers can learn about the ways social media can be employed for data collection, knowledge translation and the prudent use of available tools.
