The author undertakes to classify digital reading and produces the criteria for classifying digital readers. She refers to the traditional classifications of readers, i. e. by reading culture, structure of reading interests, reading motives. The author reviews Russian and foreign studies of digital and traditional reading, identifies trends and distinctions.
The authors explore the significant changes in traditional bibliometrics, including distinctive innovations in this area. Advancement of e-publications and increasing role of open access systems are among the most significant developments. New approaches to providing access to feed scientific data are discussed. The governmental agencies has been increasingly encouraging the publication activity assessment, as well as design and development of the analogous national platforms, e.g. Russian Science Citation Index, eLIBRARY, and NEL.
The structure of scientific process adapting to the open science concept has been intensively changing. The libraries and librarians are to be the key actors in this process. Within the scope and differentiation of librarian and bibliographer competences for open science support, the competences may be divided into several key vectors: methodological support, analysis, and popularization of open science.
The author explores one of the aspects of data analysis of the publication activity of scientific institution researchers. In particular, she discusses the possibility of assessing the interest that research centers, research and scientific-production organizations take in the research projects by scientific organizations. For this purpose, the author proposes to use databases of publication activity of researchers as the information source.
Within the framework of R&D project “Information support of research by scientists and specialists on the basis of RNPLST Open Archive as the system of scientific knowledge aggregation”, the RNPLS&T carries on the analysis of general characteristics and features of and defining standard requirements for the LIS search interfaces. The author attempts to develop the array of the requirements for modern web-based interfaces of e-catalogs, to classify and formulate them more specifically, and to substantiate these requirements.
The author reviews the scientific and practical conference on artificial intelligence (AI) in libraries held by RAS Institute for Scientific Information for Social Sciences. He summarizes the presented papers exploring theoretical and practical aspects of using AI tools in library services in Russia and neighbor states.
The practical use of linked data in library projects implies their representation in the RDF format for further use and processing in information systems, and, on the other hand, enrichment of information delivered to the search portal users. In this study, the authors examine the aspects of information enrichment for search outcome. They used GEMET multilingual thesaurus as the basic data set for linking. The RNPLS&T Single Open Information Archive (SOIA) portal has been built based on advanced technologies and trends in using linked data. These trends are also reviewed.
The authors discuss the experience of Russia and the CIS countries in designing analytics systems for assessing research outcome of researchers and organizations and facilitating decision making in science. The scientometric analysis based on the indicators of research funding, staff training, publication activity, etc., was accomplished to characterize the post-Soviet science space. The authors attempt to classify the existing CRIS-systems and similar solutions. Based on their study, the authors conclude on the positive trend in analytics systems design in these countries.
The expanding studies in transformation of scientific communication and practical aspects of open scientific content and scientific process dictate to identify the subject scope of open science studies. For the purpose of the study, 561 journal publications in the Library and Information Science category included in the Web of Science database were analyzed. As a result, 27 topics are specified, their contents are described, and the differences in subject orientation between “the classical” WoS, and the newer ESCI, are revealed.
