International Education Studies, 6(11), 93-99. doi: 10.5539/ies.v6n11p93 Abstract Abstract: Do you know “Over 43% of ISI papers have never ever received any citations?” (nature.com/top100, 2014). Publishing a high quality paper in scientific journals is only halfway towards receiving citation in the future. The rest of the journey is dependent on disseminating the publications via proper utilization of the “Research Tools”. Proper tools allow the researchers to increase the research impact and citations for their publications. This workshop series will provide you various techniques on how you can increase the visibility and hence the impact of your research work. Keywords: H-index, Increase citations, Research tools, Research visibility, Research impact ©2016-2017 Nader Ale Ebrahim Effective Strategies for Increasing Citation Frequency Journal Reputation and Impact: publishing a paper in a journal based on disciplinary reputatation or with a high impact factor is the most well known way of getting your paper cited. But there are many other things a scholar can do to promote his or her work and make it easy for others to find. Utilize Open Access Tools: Open Access journals tend to be cited more than non open access. Deposit your paper in a repository such as Scholars Archive here on campus or a disciplinary repository. Share your detailed research data in a repository. Standarize Identifying Info: try to use the same name throughout your career as well as the name of your affiliated insitution. Using common "official" names will allow for consistency and easy retrieval of your work by author or affiliation. Bring Colleagues on Board: team-authored articles are cited more frequently, as does publishing with international authors. Working cross-or inter-disciplinarily helps as well. Beef Up That Paper: use more references, publish a longer paper. Also papers which are published elsewhere after having been rejected are cited more frequently. Beyond Peer-Reviewed Original Research: Write a review paper. Present a working paper. Write and disseminate web-based tutorials on your topic. Search Optimization: use keywords in the abstract and assign them to the manuscript. Use descriptive titles that utilize the obvious terms searchers would use to look for your topic, avoiding questions in the title. Select a journal that is indexed in the key library databases for your field. Market Yourself: create a key phrase that describes your research career and use it. Update your professional web page and publication lists frequently. Link to your latest and greatest article in your professional email signature file. Utliize Social Media: Use author profiles such as ResearcherID and ORCID. Contribute to Wikipedia, start a blog and/or podcast, join academic social media sites. From: Ebrahim, N.A., et al. (2013).

A ‘citation’ means a piece of research being cited (referred to) within another piece of research. Generally, the more often a piece of research is cited, the more influential it is. So the more highly cited research papers a university publishes, the stronger its research output is considered. QS collects this information using Scopus, the world’s largest database of research abstracts and citations. The latest five complete years of data are used, and the total citation count is assessed in relation to the number of academic faculty members at the university, so that larger institutions do not have an unfair advantage. For the 2016-17 rankings, QS analyzed 10.3 million research papers and 66.3 million citations. For the 2015-16 edition of the QS World University Rankings, several refinements were introduced to the way this indicator is assessed, with the aim of providing a more balanced reflection of research impact across different faculty areas.

  • “Altmetrics” Using Google Scholar, Twitter, Mendeley, Facebook
    Pre-Print Version Altmetrics of “altmetrics” using Google Scholar, Twitter, Mendeley, Facebook, Google-plus, CiteULike, Blogs and Wiki Saeed-Ul Hassan, Uzair Ahmed Gillani [email protected] Information Technology University, 346-B Ferozepur Road, Lahore (Pakistan) Abstract: We measure the impact of “altmetrics” field by deploying altmetrics indicators using the data from Google Scholar, Twitter, Mendeley, Facebook, Google- plus, CiteULike, Blogs and Wiki during 2010- 2014. To capture the social impact of scientific publications, we propose an index called alt-index, analogues to h-index. Across the deployed indices, our results have shown high correlation among the indicators that capture social impact. While we observe medium Pearson’s correlation (ρ= .247) among the alt-index and h-index, a relatively high correlation is observed between social citations and scholarly citations (ρ= .646). Interestingly, we find high turnover of social citations in the field compared with the traditional scholarly citations, i.e. social citations are 42.2% more than traditional citations. The social mediums such as Twitter and Mendeley appear to be the most effective channels of social impact followed by Facebook and Google-plus. Overall, altmetrics appears to be working well in the field of “altmetrics”. Keywords: Altmetrics, Social Media, Usage Indicators, Alt-index Pre-Print Version Introduction In scholarly world, altmetrics are getting popularity as to support and/or alternative to traditional citation-based evaluation metrics such as impact factor, h-index etc. (Priem et. al., 2010). The concept of altmetrics was initially proposed in 2010 as a generalization of article level metrics and has its roots in the #altmetrics hashtag (McIntyre et al, 2011).

Bede Mitchell and Mary Reichel This study examines the influence of scholarly requirements on librar­ ians’ ability to earn tenure or continuous employment. After a literature review, the authors present the results of a survey of research, doctoral, and master’s-level institutions. Of the 690 responding institutions, 54.3 percent employ tenure-track librarians. Of these, more than 60 percent require some scholarship and 34.6 percent encourage it. At these 374 institutions, 92.2 percent of librarians who underwent tenure review dur­ ing a three-year period were approved. The authors summarize survey information on librarians not granted tenure as well as those believed by directors to have resigned to avoid tenure review.

A variety of schemas and ontologies are currently used for the machine-readable description of bibliographic entities and citations. This diversity, and the reuse of the same ontology terms with differ- ent nuances, generates inconsistencies in data. Adoption of a single data model would facilitate data integration tasks regardless of the data sup- plier or context application. In this paper we present the OpenCitations Data Model (OCDM), a generic data model for describing bibliographic entities and citations, developed using Semantic Web technologies.

  • Abstract and Index and Web Discovery Services IEEE Partners
    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract and Index and Web Discovery Services IEEE Partners Introduction This document is intended to provide a general overview of the abstract and indexing services and web discovery services that take in IEEE content. While this report is intended to provide readers with information on IEEE content indexed and in what service, there are several things to keep in mind: Services identified in this report do not cover everything in IEEE’s Xplore Digital Library either because IEEE does not provide all content to these services, or because only certain content was selected by a partner. Some services add and delete titles regularly, or include only select articles, in order to maintain a database that is relevant to their audience. While IEEE may provide a data feed for a particular subscription package (noted in the tables below), partners are not required to index all content. Most partners update their products at varying intervals and many Abstract and Indexing Services do not include corrected or updated article information. As a result, and given that these services and our agreements with these partners can and do change, readers of this report are encouraged to contact Krista Thom, Publishing Relations Program Specialist at [email protected] with specific questions. Abstract & Indexing Services Abstract and indexing services maintain databases, often subject-specific, which users can search to find relevant content. The data included in these services may be peer-reviewed journals, books, reports, and other types of content. Unlike web scale discovery services, these services collect metadata (including abstracts) from publishers and other organizations into large repositories or indexes.

  • 445 Publishing Trends of Journals with Manuscripts in Pubmed Central
    445 ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION DOI: dx.doi.org/10.5195/jmla.2018.457 Publishing trends of journals with manuscripts in PubMed Central: changes from 2008–2009 to 2015–2016 Lauren Topper, PhD; Diane Boehr, MLS See end of article for authors’ affiliations. Objective: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) public access policy mandates that all articles containing NIH-funded research must be deposited into PubMed Central (PMC). The aim of this study was to assess publishing trends of journals that were not selected for the National Library of Medicine (NLM) collection but contain NIH-funded articles submitted to PMC in compliance with the public access policy. In addition, the authors investigated the degree to which NIH-funded research is published in journals that NLM does not collect due to concerns with the publishers. Methods: We analyzed bibliographic data from the NIH Manuscript Submission system for journals that were not selected for the NLM collection from August 2015 to August 2016. Publications (n=738) were analyzed by language, publishing country, publishing format, and subject, and the results were compared to a similar study of 2008–2009 data. In addition, publications were analyzed by whether their publishers are collected by NLM, as determined by transparency and adherence to publishing best practices. Results: Only a few differences were found between the studies. Most notably, while both studies revealed that most journals were not selected for the NLM collection because they were out of scope (i.e., not biomedical), we noted an increase in 2015–2016 in biomedical journals containing NIH-funded articles that were not added to the collection due to concerns with the publishers.

Scientometrics as an Important Tool for the Growth of the Field of Learning Analytics Negin Mirriahi, Dragan Gasevic, Phil Long and Shane Dawson Editors, Journal of Learning Analytics ABSTRACT: This article introduces the special issue from SoLAR’s Learning Analytics and Knowledge conference. Learning analytics is an emerging field incorporating theory and practice from numerous disciplines to investigate how learner interactions with digital artefacts can provide actionable data to the learner herself, and educators about the learning process. As the field continues to expand there is a timely opportunity to evaluate its ongoing maturation. This evaluation could be in part informed by regular scientometric analyses from both the Journal and Conference publications. These analyses can collectively provide insight into the development of learning analytics more broadly and assist with the allocation of resources to under‐represented areas for example. KEYWORDS: Special issue, learning analytics, research, practice, Society for Learning Analytics Research, SoLAR, LAK’13 1 EDITORIAL We would like to dedicate this issue to our dear colleague and friend Erik Duval from Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. Erik has been key figure in the development of the Society for Learning Analytics Research as both executive member and prominent researcher advancing the field. At LAK’14 Indianapolis, USA, Erik informed us that he was unable to attend the conference as he had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma1. Despite undergoing a difficult medical treatment, Erik has maintained his unfailing level of energy, sense of humour and passion – traits which capture the hearts of those he interacts with2.

  • Arxiv:1803.10713V2 [Cs.DL] 6 Apr 2021 the Impact of Those Authors That Cite It
    CERN-TH-2018-066 Biblioranking fundamental physics (updated to 2021/1/1) Alessandro Strumiaa, Riccardo Torreb;c a Dipartimento di Fisica dell’Universit`adi Pisa, Italy b CERN, Theory Division, Geneva, Switzerland c INFN, sezione di Genova, Italy Abstract Counting of number of papers, of citations and the h-index are the simplest bibliometric indices of the impact of research. We discuss some improvements. First, we replace citations with individual ci- tations, fractionally shared among co-authors, to take into account that different papers and different fields have largely different average number of co-authors and of references. Next, we improve on citation counting applying the PageRank algorithm to citations among papers. Being time-ordered, this reduces to a weighted counting of citation de- scendants that we call PaperRank. We compute a related AuthorRank applying the PageRank algorithm to citations among authors. These metrics quantify the impact of an author or paper taking into account arXiv:1803.10713v2 [cs.DL] 6 Apr 2021 the impact of those authors that cite it. Finally, we show how self- and circular- citations can be eliminated by defining a closed market of Citation-coins. We apply these metrics to the InSpire database that covers fundamental physics, presenting results for papers, authors, journals, institutes, towns, countries, and continents, for all-time and in recent time periods.

  • Visualizing Citation and Authorship Relations for Finding Reviewers
    1 ReviewerNet: Visualizing Citation and Authorship Relations for Finding Reviewers Mario Salinas, Daniela Giorgi, and Paolo Cignoni Abstract—We propose ReviewerNet, an online, interactive visualization system aimed to improve the reviewer selection process in the academic domain. Given a paper submitted for publication, we assume that good candidate reviewers can be chosen among the authors of a small set of relevant and pertinent papers; ReviewerNet supports the construction of such set of papers, by visualizing and exploring a literature citation network. Then, the system helps to select reviewers that are both well distributed in the scientific community and that do not have any conflict-of-interest, by visualising the careers and co-authorship relations of candidate reviewers. The system is publicly available, and it has been evaluated by a set of experienced researchers in the field of Computer Graphics. Index Terms—Scholarly data visualization, bibliometric networks, expert finding. F 1 INTRODUCTION HE number of digital academic documents, either newly laborations. Every member of the community has its own T published papers or documents resulting from digitiza- approach to reviewer finding, which usually involves bibli- tion efforts, grows at a very fast pace: the Scopus digital ographic research, and frequent visits to public repositories repository counts more than 70 million documents and like DBLP [8] and researchers’ home pages. In any case, one 16 million author profiles [1]; the Web of Science plat- has to confront possibly large collections of data to make form has more than 155 million records from over 34,000 decisions, and a user may easily get lost after following a journals [2]; Microsoft Academic collects about 210 million few links.
