PROGRAM MODULE FOR COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS OF SCIENTOMETRIC DATA OF FACULTY: POSSIBILITIES FOR INTEGRATION AND FURTHER DEVELOPMENT

The current stage of development of university libraries requires active participation in the processes of formation and development of an effective system of publication activity of university researchers. the constant collection and monitoring of data on the indicators of authors in Russian and international scientometric systems is an important component of this system. Collecting information and keeping it up-to-date in order to quickly respond to incoming requests along with the ability to output data in various structured formats, are inefficient and time-consuming in case of constant access to platforms and “manual” generation of information.

The article presents the stages of creation and development of a software module created and functioning at the Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia and allowing real-time output of structured current and comparative data on scientometric indicators of university teachers and researchers. Particular attention is paid to the prospects for the development of the created complex and the possibilities of data integration, including the earlier implemented synchronization of information with the profiles of teachers on the university website.

The program module was created on the basis of database interaction with the API of scientometric resources such as Russian Science Citation Index, Scopus and Web of Science with the goal of further processing and systematization of the data obtained. The program module presented by the authors and created by the employees of the fundamental library, made it possible to create a single access point to the data which can be used to fill out any kind of documents, to monitor the implementati
