Bibliometric Reports for Institutions: Best Practices in a Responsible Metrics Scenario

Abstract: Carrying out bibliometric reports is one of the common tasks performed by librarians and practitioners within the framework of their professional duties. The emergence of novel data sources, the need to measure new research activities and the growing demand for fairer and more equitable evaluation within the framework of the Responsible Metrics movement has led to calls for a review of the traditional approaches to these types of reports. The main goal of this study is to outline a series of recommendations fo… Show more

“…The effectiveness of research institutions is more challenging to evaluate for universities, research institutions, funding agencies, and evaluation organizations worldwide. A new situation marked by multidimensional evaluations that take into account aspects like knowledge transfer, the diversity of research outputs that an institution can produce, and other ethical, integrity, and equity issues have been brought about by the emergence of novel data sources, the measurement of new research activities beyond the simple publication of scientific results, and the growing need for fairer, more equitable, and responsible assessment procedures (Cabezas-Clavijo & Torres-Salinas, 2021).…”

“…Bibliometrics has been broadly utilised to analyse patterns in a researcher's or field of study's studies, substantiate the impact of a researcher's or field's research, uncover new and developing fields of research, locate potential research partners, and find relevant sources to publish [39][40][41][42]. Researchers, educators, students, libraries, and funding agencies benefit the most from it [43,44]. When coupled with network mapping techniques, bibliometrics can reveal important patterns in a subject, allowing researchers to identify new trends and contribute to the design and planning of future researches [45].…”

“…In the last decades, these techniques which measure and analyse the scientific production of any given country and/or institution, have emerged as powerful and popular tools (13,14). Literature production has been growing and so Bibliometrics can explore large volumes of data, analyse them on macroscopic and microscopic levels (15), and create a quantitative report with a descriptive purpose: to reflect the state of the research at a specific moment in time and space.…”

“…Bibliometric reports for institutions are now becoming a standard in best practices across a responsible metrics scenario (13). Science indicators should encourage the creation of new strategies to improve scientific production of a country, and specifically of prestigious institutions, as the one we are targeting.…”
