Research Portfolio Manager (RPM)

The University is launching NURO, a new publications management system.  NURO will harvest many publications automatically, increasing the speed at which research publication profiles are updated. The new system will also allow researchers to manually enter their own publications.

From Friday 6 September 2013 entry of publications into Callista and RPM will cease. Library and Research Services staff will commence adding publications into NURO after Monday 9 September. NURO will be open to researchers from mid-October. Research Office will add unaffiliated publications on behalf of researchers during this period.

Note that there may be some delays in entering your publications during September as we refine the new system.

For further information about NURO and updating your publications please contact:

Research Services rps@newcastle.edu.au or ph: 4921 7125 (for unaffiliated publications)

Library Services publications@newcastle.edu.au or ph: 4921 5828 (for all University of Newcastle affiliated publications)
