[Dspace-general] HKU IR, ResearcherPages, bibliometrics & more

[David Palmer]

The University of Hong Kong wishes to announce HKU ResearcherPages for each
of its many authors, now appearing in the The HKU Scholars Hub, the
institutional repository of HKU.  Three examples,

http://hub.hku.hk/rp/rp00023        Prof Samaranayake, Dean of Dentistry

http://hub.hku.hk/rp/rp00056        Prof Bacon-Shone, Associate Dean of
Social Sciences

http://hub.hku.hk/rp/rp00060        Prof Tam, Pro-Vice Chancellor (Research)

 

This work is the result of a successful collaboration between HKU and CILEA
(AePIC Team).  Much of the code developed for this project has been included
in the forthcoming version 1.6 of DSpace, which will soon be released to the
community.

Highlights:

 

* Author-centric bibliometrics from Scopus - the results of an on-going
massive bibliometric rectification project, between Elsevier and HKU. [Pls
note the +/- expand/collapse box for bibliometrics in pages above].  This is
in preparation for our annual Performance Reviews, and our impending
Research Assessment Exercise.

 

* Author-centric bibliometrics from ResearcherID.com (Web of Science) - the
results of an on-going large scale institutional upload of publication lists
for each HKU author to RID.  One example,

* Unique identifier for each HKU researcher.  In URLs above, "rp00023",
"rp00056", and "rp00060" are examples of this.

 

* Integration with HKU's Media Directory, to show subjects on which each
researcher can speak to, or write for the media, and in which languages.
The Hub is now an expert finder, for those in gov't & industry wishing to
find specialists for consultancies, contract research, etc.  Pls note facets
by which RPs can be retrieved,

* Authority control; disambiguation of like named individuals, linkage from
variant names to the established heading, synonymy between established
headings in different vernacular scripts.  Examples,

http://hub.hku.hk/browse?type=author
<http://hub.hku.hk/browse?type=author&order=ASC&rpp=100&starts_with=tam+p>
&order=ASC&rpp=100&starts_with=tam+p

http://hub.hku.hk/browse?type=author
<http://hub.hku.hk/browse?type=author&order=ASC&rpp=100&starts_with=%E8%AD%9
A%E5%AE%B6%E9%9B%AF>
&order=ASC&rpp=100&starts_with=%E8%AD%9A%E5%AE%B6%E9%9B%AF

 

* Article level metrics from Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar.  In
