On 25/26 March 2020, the Bibliometrics Forum will take place for the second time at the University Library of the Technical University of Munich.
University libraries have been offering bibliometric services for scientists, faculties and university administrations for several years. Through bibliometric procedures, i.e. the evaluation of publication and citation data, they support researchers in making publications as visible as possible and advise universities on rankings and benchmarking.
The seminar programme includes lectures on fundamental and specific questions of bibliometric practice and offers ample space for discussion and exchange of experience. The event will focus on the question of how the concept of "responsible metrics" can be put into practice. In addition, we seek in joint discussions to delevop solutions for bibliometric assignments for which standard procedures are not available yet.
The event is aimed at colleagues from libraries and academia as well as from university administrations and management who deal with bibliometrics in their work.
