Highlights
A modern university of international level is not so much an educational institution as a research centre that uses the intellectual potential of a team of teachers, researchers, employees of the university library (Myamlin & Kolesnykova, 2014)
The publication activity can be considered as the criterion for evaluating the labor efficiency of a research centre (Myrhorodska & Savelieva, 2016)
The task of correct evaluation of the publication activity of individual scientific-pedagogical and scientific employees is associated with the problem of correct evaluation of the scientific achievements of the university as a whole
Summary
A modern university of international level is not so much an educational institution as a research centre that uses the intellectual potential of a team of teachers, researchers, employees of the university library (Myamlin & Kolesnykova, 2014). In order to cope with this task, scientometric research methods that to one degree or another describe the publication activity are used (Kvelidze-Kuznetsova & Morozova, 2009; Kolesnykova & Matveyeva, 2015). The results of these studies affect the university position, both in the Ukrainian and in international ratings, which is very important in the modern realities of higher education development in Ukraine. Since the services of diverse library support for scientific research are constantly changing and becoming more complicated, this issue is in the focus of attention of librarians
