The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 6 What are the librarians doing? Libraries need people with expertise and learning ability. Updating and permanently training ourselves to work with new databases, standards, tools 2.0, semantic web, scientific SEO… Team work. Cooperation with other services. Participation online. Helping students, faculty staff and researchers. Helping the Research Office. Promoting and spreading scientific papers. Promoting our researchers. We need to work about these aims on the web, in order to obtain global knowledge about our university.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 7 Scientific globalization. Which indicators can help researchers with their national evaluations? Librarians help to know all this. Who are the best researchers and where are they publishing? Impact factor, SJR, H-index. Many people find the knowledge through international databases: Scopus, Science Direct, WOS. From national and local publications on paper to the need of publishing in international electronic journals with global spread. What are the best institutions and where are they publishing? Impact factor, SJR, H-index. Rankings. Important questions

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 8 Scientific globalisation and scientific identity. Nowadays, our researchers are having problems to look for their identity on the net: “Who am I?” Our researchers need help with their profiles: “What are my codes?” The researcher's identity on databases is made through profiles and IDs. Some important librarian roles are: Elaborating analysis and reports about the identification of authors and institutions, solving problems, proposing solutions and making signing rules for the academic staff. From national identity to global identity.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 9 Online visibility of our identity 1. Example: an author profile on Scopus.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 10 Online visibility of our identity 2. Example: an institution profile on Academic Search.

Another important librarian task is to write institutional reports so they can be consulted by departments, research groups and independent researchers with their scientific production data. The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 11 Researchers and scientific authors. Who are they? How is an author linked when their name is not clear enough. Examples: That is why researches aren't often able to find their scientific papers and their profiles. How does a scientific author's name appear on databases? Perhaps their name is not clear enough.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 12 Identity means precision. We must identify and review author and institutions: Precisely and periodically. On a regular basis. Ding Y

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 13 Identity precision allows analysis improvement. Scival analysis tools and Scopus profiles : Scival Strata and Scival Spotlight are sometimes based on the researches or institutions profiles. Ex: Scival Spotlight. Rankings - Competencies. Institutions. Ex: Scival Strata. Comparative analysis. Researchers.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 14 Identity, profiles and Shanghai Ranking. Essential scientific indicators. Highly cited researchers 1) Creating Researcher IDs at Thomson Reuters for our highly cited authors. 2) Searching and attributing their publications on WOS. What we must do from the Library:

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 15 An important task: reviewing profiles. Why Scopus in the first place? It is the most widely used and known database. We are performing some sessions about digital identity for the research staff. We are writing some recommendations about signing and affiliations.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 16 Scientific production is important for identity. All the Spaniard universities must write, on a yearly basis, an official report about their researching activities. To carry it out, the input data about research papers is necessary. As visibility online is a very important matter, we have decided to load all the data on our Institutional Repository, an open standard electronic online archive. Reseach Report The Library Search for Data Institutional Repository Researchers Reviewing Adding Institutional Repository

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 17 An example: from Scopus to Repository. 1. Collect publications with an "institutional affiliation" (University of Oviedo) on bibliographic databases. Not only on Scopus, but also on the Science Web, Medline, IEEE, Wiley and Spaniard databases. 2. Import Bulk Data of publications, including DOI. 3. Store, review, delete any duplicate and standardise all kind of data: Titles of journals, authors, years, etc. 4. Convert data into metadata for DSpace Repository. 5. Uploade these data to Repository by an automatic process. 6. Standardise names, titles of journals and other data. Process

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 18 Identifying with data. Semantic web. Metadata for Institutional Repository: Dublin Core Metadata; RDF Authors' metadata: It is essential that authors are perfectly identified. The role of libraries: Elaborating and creating metadata. Current trend: Open and linked data. Linking authors' identifications on ScopusID to other identifications: ORCID; Researcher ID; VIAF. VIAF Virtual International Authorities File

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 21 Identifying and linking scientific documents online. The importance of linking original published documents. Not all the articles will be available to be read with their full content online for free. The importance of DOI for unidentified documents. Precisely linked authors and documents. Authors codes. But, at least, authors and publications data will be displayed online in an open and standardized way.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 22 The researching identity oriented to the results of search engines. Institutions also need an identity. It is necessary to have a personal identity for each researcher. It is necessary to spread and promote it online. This identity requires being reviewed, standardized and linked. The institutional identity influences the authors identity, and viceversa. Authors and institutions and departments are linked online. Identity belongs to the team and to each member of that team

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 23 Open Access helps spread researcher identity. Open Access facilitates online visibility Open Access is currently used in a large amount of scientific journals. The Open Access changes the way of financing the journals. Institutions shall promote and finance Open Access. The University library is constantly working and informing about all the issues related to Open Access.

The university library as a support for the institutional research identity - 24 Identity, profiles and ORCID 1. ORCID is an open, non-profit, community-based effort to create and maintain a registry of unique researcher identifiers and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers. ORCID is unique in its ability to reach across disciplines, research sectors, and national boundaries and in its cooperation with other identifier systems. ORCID works with the research community to identify opportunities for integrating ORCID identifiers in key workflows, such as research profile maintenance, manuscript submissions, grant applications, and patent applications.
