Research Collaboration between Stockholm University and other Swedish Academic Institutions : A Bibliometric Study to Support Decisions on Library Collaboration
- 2015

In: Qualitative and Quantitative Methods in Libraries. - 2241-1925. ; :SI, s. 49-60

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Academic libraries collaborate in several ways. For instance, collaboration can concern standards for indexing and statistics, technical solutions or collection development. A question that a given academic library might ask is with which other academic libraries the library should principally collaborate. In this study, we show how bibliometric methods can be used to generate information that can support decision making with regard to the question at stake. We evaluate the amount of research collaboration between Stockholm University and other Swedish academic institutions across five publishing years, and for the whole considered time period, where research collaboration is operationalized as co-publishing. A dataset of publications obtained from Web of Science, where each publication has at least one Stockholm University address, is used in the study. Co-publishing rates, non-fractionalized and fractionalized, across the publishing years and for the whole for period, for Stockholm University and other Swedish academic institutions, are reported. Further, parts of the outcome of the study are visualized in terms of co-publishing networks.

Author Perspectives on Research Visibility and Impact
- 2018
-
In: 23rd Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy 2018.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The poster will present findings from a survey of 375 corresponding authors whose publications have beenpublished open access as part of the Springer Compact agreement between Bibsam and Springer Nature 2016-2018. In focus is how these authors reason about ways to make their research visible, how/if they themselves tryto track the attention gained by the publication, and what they think are good impact measures. The study thusadds to previous work on author attitudes and practices (e.g. Hammarfelt & Haddow, 2018; Tenopir et al., 2016)and can provide some input into the current work in Sweden on how to evaluate and assure high research quality(UKÄ, 2018).When asked about their arguments for publishing open access, a large proportion of respondents in freetextanswers indicated that open access is important because it increases a publication’s visibility, access to it,downloads and/or social and scientific impact. Consequently, it is interesting to investigate if open accesspublishing is the only way in which these authors try to find readers for their publication, or if they take furthersteps. Answers suggest researchers use general social media, academic networking sites, and more traditionaldigital channels to share their publications.Furthermore, the study asked which measures the authors think are the best ones for assessing the impactof their publications, and how they themselves find out how much attention their publications get. The responseswill be discussed in terms of traditional metrics, such as JIFs and citations, and altmetrics, such as how documentsare accessed or appraised (Haustein et al., 2016) through downloads or shares in social media. They will also berelated to more indirect forms of research evaluation, such as peer review and social impact.ReferencesHammarfelt, B. & Haddow, G. (2018).

Effekter av undervisning i informationskompetens : går de att mäta?
- 2008

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Academic libraries have given students instruction in information literacy for a long time. One important aspect of this work is to evaluate the student after instruction; has the student learnt something? Can she or he be defined as information literate? The research about assessment and evaluation in teaching is abundant. This article presents some of the research in this field, with a particular focus on assessing and evaluating teaching in libraries.

How does assessment affect learning : an example from a chemistry PhD-course in scholarly communication
- 2013
-
In: Nordic Journal of Information Literacy in Higher Education. - Bergen : University of Bergen Library. - 1890-5900. ; 5:special issue 1, s. 27-31
-
Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Assessment of students in the learning process may have several reasons (knowledge assessment, ranking etc.). One reason presented in this article would be to use the assessment as a way to enhance learning. At Stockholm University Library, PhD-students in Chemistry annually partake in a library course, where they have to write a mandatory essay and, from 2012, review a fellow student’s essay. Comparing and discussing the former and the new ways of assessing, this article aims to discuss assessment as a way to enhance learning.
