Abstract

Objective. The article considers the analytical work of the Scientific Library of Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding (NUS) on the publishing activity of the university at the international scientometric platforms. Methods of the research are based on a systematic approach, structural-functional and scientometric analysis of methods for evaluating the effectiveness and publication activity of academic staff and the university as a whole. Results. During the study, the authors proved: 1. Scientific Library of Admiral Makarov NUS actively implements innovative forms of activity, develops and diversifies the library service to aid the university research work; 2. The role of the Scientific Library as an active partner at the stages of the life cycle of scientific research of university scientists is growing; 3. Analytical work of the Scientific Library of Admiral Makarov NUS on the publishing activity of the university emphasizes and strengthens the role of the library in the processes of increasing the representation of university scientists in the global space of scientific communications, the introduction of scientometric and bibliometric research methods. Conclusions. Originality of the work lies in the expansion of ideas about the analytical work of the Scientific Library of Admiral Makarov NUS on the publishing activity of the university, which today is an important factor for further objective evaluation of the effectiveness of the academic library. This provides an opportunity to better understand the specifics of the scientific activities of HEI libraries as resource and information centres. Practical value. The obtained results can be used to increase the publishing activity of HEI at the international scientometric platforms.

Highlights

  • One of the most important indicators of the significance and authority of the scientific activity of a modern higher education institution (HEI) is its publishing activity

  • Publishing activity has become an important component of the overall strategy of HEI, which affects the amount of university funding and is one of the important components in compiling international rankings of universities, the result of comprehensive measures and efforts of HEI to enter the rating databases

  • The analysis revealed many shortcomings in the reports, so to fill out documents to assess the effectiveness of academic, scientific, technical and innovative activities used during the state certification, the Scientific Library proposed to develop a unified electronic form for annual academic activity reports of university departments and to include a list of 18 indicators for a combination of reliable quantitative and qualitative evaluation of statistical, scientometric data

Summary

Introduction

One of the most important indicators of the significance and authority of the scientific activity of a modern higher education institution (HEI) is its publishing activity. It is the publishing process, being a factor in the accumulation of HEI’s intellectual potential, that promotes the transfer of new knowledge to future specialists. As noted in (Tymofieieva & Opryshko, 2020), publishing activity is part of an even greater task of developing the national scientific, technical and educational potential of a country that has embarked on the path of market development of education, which is being solved constantly and gradually. The urgent task is to constantly monitor the current situation with university research and periodicals in order to obtain and analyse important statistical material that will allow to plan the development of domestic science
