The Hungarian Academic Publication Database Anikó Dudás Cath. University, Budapest Research Support from the Library – Erasmus Staff Mobility Week Bergen, 12 May 2016
Database of Hungarian Scholarly Works • Magyar Tudományos Művek Tára (MTMT) https://www.mtmt.hu/ • A nationalbibliography of researchpublicationsenrichedwith bibliometric features • Main goals: • to map Hungarianresearch output in alldisciplines • tobuild an up-to-datedatabase, whichhelpsresearhers, institutions and decision makers • collectsbibliographic data of scholarlyworks, artistic and technicalcreationsaswell
Forpersons: Provides and presentspersonalacademicbibliographies Personalbibliographiesare an essential part of academicbiographies (cv-s) Ensurespublicity, visibility of thepublications and research performance Forinstitutions, otherbodies: Helpstooverviewthescholarly output of theuniversity Ensurespublicity and visibility of thescholarly output Main sourceforannualreports Sourceforraw bibliometric data: publicationstatistics and performance indicators Internal and externalevaluations (accreditationprocedures, applicationsforresearchgrants etc.) Refersto an institutionalknowledgepotential/capital Purposes An authoritativesourcethatreflect publication output and bibliometric impact of Authors >> Institutions >> Country
MTMT is continuously being developedaccordingtotheneeds of R&D areas, theNational DoctoralCounsil, theHungarianAccreditationCommettee, The HungarianScientific Research Fund, theHungarianAcademy of Sciences and otherbodies. • thesebodiesareallinterested in thecorrect, consistent, unified and authentic data service.
Registeredusers: < 52.000 authors Data curators: ~ 2.500 administrators Publications: Authors’: < 1.500.000 Citations: < 5 million Somerecentfacts Central office staff (Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Library) (highest level of permissions)
Levels of metadatacurationpermissions • Author • Admin 6 • Admin 5 • Admin 4 • Admin 1-3 • His/her data • Department • Faculty • University • The whole data set, systemadmin This work requires a high-level cooperation Participation in sepcial sections
University PPCU is one of thememberinstitutions • 4 faculties: • Faculty of Theology • Faculty of Humanities and SocialSciences (Piliscsaba) • Faculty of Law and PoliticalSciences • Faculty of InformationTechnology and Bionics • Has roomforappr. 400 professors/researchers • and 7000 students, 300 PhD students
STM fileds: Bibliographic and citation data can be importedinto MTMT fromWoS, Scopus, Medline etc. Domination of journalarticles and conferencepapers A&H and SS fields: Domination of books and bookchapters No globaldatabasesforbookchapters, norcitation indexes Restricted data coverage in WoS and Scopus Collectingcitation data: differentpossibilitiesbyfields <<>> Making evidence of citation impact has become a requirement Scholars should collect themselves citations (in many cases one-by-one) E.g. through G-Scholar, G-Books, regional citation indexes (there are only few of them) – very limeted choices for „soft” fields
Threeways of trackingcitations 1) Import from prof. citation indexes - WoS, Scopus, • national licence and agreement is made betweenthevendors and theHungariancentraloffice • Mostly STM-researchersmay benefit fromthesesourses 2) Searching and pickingupfrom e-sources - Discovering, collecting, filling in one-by-one, byhand 3) Classicalreading (print/electronic) (2), (3) Typicalfor „soft” disciplines
Scientificjournalprestigeindicators • ImpactFactor is (almost) no more taken in consideration in Hungarianresearchassessment • MTMT incorporatesSCImago Journal Rank (SJR, Scopus, Elsevier) – accessible and reusable free • SJR is more sensitiveregardingdifferentscientificareas and differentcitationhabits
NormalizedCitationImpact • Journalsarerankingaccordingtothenumber of citations (during a specifictimeperiod) and thedifferentweight of thecitedsources, and dividedaccordingtopercentiles (quartiles, deciles) • Averagepercentilesarecalculated • Scientificfiledsaretakenintoconsideration • Q1 – the top 25% • D1 – the top 10% of theexeminedjournalsatthefield, D1 shows a position of thejournalamongotherjournals in thesamefields
MTMT journalprofiles – journalfeatures Qualitative/quantitativecriteria: • Is the J an academicone? • Is it peer-reviewed? • Has it an IF? • Is it recognizedbyothersecondary index (ERIH) Europen Reference Index forHumanities Currently is maintainedbytheNorwegian Centre for Research Data)
Otherregionalrankings • Journal categories of HASestablishedby main disciplinarysections and committees • A, B, C, (D) • Instead of RANK bettertosay: JOURNAL CATEGORIES, PROFILE, FEATURES
Tasks of metadatacurators - librarians • seriouslearning:bothlibrarians and scholars • librarians: theyattendtrainings; they hold trainings and consultations • preparing learningmaterials, presentations • maintainingmetadata, cleaning • intensecommunication is neededwiththemembers of theuniversitycommunity and the team of thecentraloffice • providerowstatistics, reports and basic bibliometric analysis
Co-operation(with human actors) • withfacultyauthors: input, correctionbothbyscholars and librarians in a combinedmanner • with Human Resourcesdepartment (managingacademicstaffchanges) • withleaders of theuniversity (reports, statistics) • withthe MTMT office and organization (rapid, patient, responsive and accurate team)
Interconnections • DoctoralCounsilsdatabase (link to P. Szolgay) • Repositories PPCU dissertations (outsorcingto REAL – Rep. Of Academic Library)
The future • A large-scale IT development is in thefinalstage (nextgeneration software, linked data technology) • Linking toinstitutionalrepositories, enablinginteroperability, metadataharvesting. • Allthiswillbringresearchoutputstobettervisibility and transparency • We believe it canfulfilitsmission: tomake a transparentevidencethatcansupportbothevaluation and researchdevelopmentaswellashelp in decision makingbyfullcoverage of researchorganizations in Hungary.
