Support for scientific publication
The UCSC Milan campus Library provides some services that, with innovative content and methods developed in national and international academic contexts, aims to support teachers, researchers, doctoral and postgraduate students of the University in their activities in the increasingly competitive context of Scholarly Communication, particularly with regard to citation aspects, peer reviewing systems and new publishing models.
These services provide methodological support for:
- the retrieval and analysis of bibliometric indicators needed in the evaluation processes, to accompany bibliographies and CVs, for the National Scientific Qualification (ASN) and during the national evaluation exercises (VQR)
- insertion of the products in the institutional repositories PubliCatt and PubliRES
- the correction of author profiles within the citation databases
- Open Access publishing
In addition, the service is available - upon request - to UCSC scholars for consulting activities regarding:
- the appropriate use of bibliometric databases and related analytical platforms
- publication strategies useful to increase visibility and impact of their work, through quantitative analysis of the performance of scientific journals and citation network
