bib-app

A team at my old place of employment, Wendt Library at UW-Madison, showed off a pretty cool application, bibapp, that gathers data about what faculty on their campus have published. Among other things, the data is used to find articles that our legally storable in the IR; almost cooler than that is the connections that they demonstrate between the publications. They can visualize who's publishing with who, analyze popular research subjects across discplines, etc.
