Construire un indicateur bibliométrique pour l’histoire avec les comptes-rendus de lecture – Pascal Martinolli

Où l’on construit notre propre indicateur bibliométrique pour valoriser la production scientifique en histoire via les livres avec un protocole simple de collecte, de traitement et de présentation des comptes-rendus de lecture.

Where do bibliometricians come from? 🤔 A new international study suggests a simple answer: mostly from academic libraries. Around 60% of people doing bibliometric work at universities are based there.

 https://doi.org/10.1177/01655515261417634

The catch? Over 70% say they never had formal training in bibliometrics. People simply grow into the role while working with databases, indicators and research analytics.

Where art thou, academic integrity? Musings here from @hugh about incoherence at the centre of Clarivate Nexus.

"[Nexus] is a pitch to #librarians who have correctly identified generative #AI #chatbots as purveyors of endless bullshit, but also know that students + some researchers are going to use them anyway [...] #Clarivate are essentially integrity-washing synthetic text, giving it an #academic sheen without any academic rigour."

Acabou o amor... O Portal ISSN de Periódico disponibilizava uma API gratuita não documentada para quem precisa acessar os dados de periódicos.

Com o novo portal, a API morreu.

Agora, o negócio é fazer webscraping ou contar com o Openalex ou com o Odorico (que é mais completo em termos de número de periódicos disponíveis)

Efficient Bulk Access to Citations in OpenCitations

OpenCitations aggregates and deduplicates bibliographic information from CrossRef, Europe PubMed Central, and other sources to construct a comprehensive, open index of citations between scientific works. This post describes the opencitations-client package which wraps the OpenCitations API and implements an automated pipeline for locally downloading, caching, and accessing OpenCitations in bulk.

Biopragmatics

Can we trust “guidelines on how to write a scientific paper”? We analysed 71 “Write a Scientific Paper” guidelines that were widely used and cited for years as best practices.

Facts:
▪️ 555 citations
▪️ 48 papers carry an editorial expression of concern
▪️ 30 (42%) have been retracted!

Author Name Disambiguation in Scholarly Research: A Bibliometric Perspective – InfoDoc MicroVeille

A few days ago, @OpenAlex announced that they will require free API keys instead of having the “polite pool” with an email parameter: https://groups.google.com/g/openalex-users/c/rI1GIAySpVQ

They also shared some more insights: their infrastructure now handles around 1.5 billion API calls per month 🤯 On top of that, they are planning new APIs for PDF content and vector search, affiliation matching curation and better author name disambiguation (https://blog.openalex.org/openalex-2026-roadmap/).

With the new features, it looks like they are starting to reap the benefits of their backend migration.

API keys required starting Feb 13 (and some new endpoints!)
