Molloy University Profiles

A Guide to Pure4EGS for Molloy faculty.

Press & Media

Press & Media is automated system wide.

  • Newsflo is used.
  • This works through a Scopus Author ID.
  • You can not create new Press & Media.
  • You can edit the content from Newsfo.
  • You must review the content as appears as "Entry in Progress"
  • Once reviewed you must mark it as "For Approval" similar to the Research & Scholarship workflow so that Titles and Links can be checked.

If you have a Scopus Author ID and wish to opt out of Press & Media, contact Tabitha Ochtera, tochtera@molloy.edu


Your Scopus Author ID is visible in your Profile information, under metadata.


If you don't have a Scopus Author ID listed but think you should then you can search for yourself in Scopus through the JET library. Once you find your Author ID you can add it to the metadata section on your profile. 

What is Newsflo? (Information from the Pure internal Adiministrator portal)

Newsflo provides the ability to measure an academic's research impact by uncovering relevant mentions of their work across tens of thousands of mass media outlets around the world back to September 2013. The core components of Newsflo are:

  • Tracking of media mentions for researchers, universities, institutes and funding agencies
  • Clever clustering of similar stories from different sources, using an advanced text clustering algorithm which clusters relevant news articles together within a time based window
  • Coverage from over 55,000 (English-speaking) news outlets in over 20 countries including the USA, India, China, Brazil and all major European countries

Enabling integration with Newsflo will automatically create Press/Media content in Pure, associated with relevant Persons and Organizations. Relations with Research Outputs will also automatically be created, where available.

Newsflo content is sourced using Scopus Author IDs. Only content with no license restrictions and associated with current Persons is imported.
