The scholarly output report provides an official sealed report verifying the research ability of a scholar by searching the inclusion and citation of the scholar’s publications in databases such as SCI, SSCI and EI based on the search results.
The library has been offering this service since 2015. With the rapid development of the university, demand for reports has increased year by year. To better meet the needs of faculty and students and improve service efficiency, the library is undertaking a comprehensive system upgrade.
I. Upgrade of Report Issuance Method
The upgraded system supports two report options: "Manual Inclusion and Citation Report" and "Self-Service Inclusion Report." The former is mainly used for recruitment, promotion and tenure review, award applications, and talent program applications, while the latter is primarily for doctoral admission applications, master's/doctoral graduation applications, and scholarship applications. The self-service option provides inclusion status only, without citation counts. It supports a fully self-service process with real-time reporting. Faculty and students can choose the report issuance method as needed.
