Boost Your Scholarly Profile!

This week, take some time to catch up on all of our tasks thus far.  This is also a good time to

• update any other professional accounts you might have (some options are listed at the bottom of this page)
• double-check your privacy settings on Facebook and other social media (next week, we will focus specifically on Twitter) 
• if you have outdated information on another website, such as a former institution, contact the site's administrator to have it removed.  

• Task 1: Google Yourself! 

   
• Task 2: Update or create your Google Scholar Profile 

   
• Task 3: Create Your Scholarly ID 

   
• Task 4: Submit your work to City Tech's institutional repository, CUNY Academic Works 

   
• Task 5: Update your CV and Post it Online 

   
• Task 6: Catch up and Clean up 

   
• Task 7: Get Started with Twitter 

   

These are popular sites to maintain a professional presence and share your scholarship. Keep in mind that each of these requires you to set up an account. There is no fee to set up an account, but you will get frequent email updates. Sign up for these accounts only if you plan to maintain them.
