Библиометрический анализ эффективности исследовательской деятельности Научного центра волоконной оптики РАН

Russian scientific organizations rating system introduction at the state level makes the use of scientometric indicators necessary. This article is devoted to the problems of analysis and improving the scientific activities effectiveness of the organization. The aim of this work is to present the bibliometric analysis results of the research activities of the Fiber Optics Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences (FORC RAS). The assessment of the contribution of the FORC RAS to the development of fiber optics as a scientific field is given. The main scientometric indicators were studied: publication activity, the total number of scientific papers citations and normalized citation, the number of the most highly cited articles, Hirsch indices. The comparison of bibliometric indicators of the FORC RAS with other Russian scientific organizations working in the fiber optics field was carried out. The performed analysis is relevant both to characterize the FORC RAS activities and to choose the library activity direction. The methodological approach is based on the application of mathematical, bibliographic and bibliometric research methods. The analysis was carried out using the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI), scientometric databases Web of Science and Scopus, as well as the InCites analytical tool. The relationship between meeting the needs for scientific information of scientists and increasing the efficiency and success of research activities of a scientific organization is shown. The main source of information at the present stage is the access of research organizations to the scientific electronic resources of leading world publishers. In this work, the authors conclude that new forms of library work, consisting in creating your own information resource “Fiber Optics Information System”, which contains both an electronic library of publications in this subject area, and complete information about the work of employees, are very promising.
