Central Library Management Summary Bibliometric analyses provide information on publication performance (quantitative), the perception and impact of publications in the specialist community (qualitative), and international scientific cooperations (co-publication analysis). Of all of the various types of scientific publications (e.g. books, conference papers and essays), bibliometric analyses focus predominantly on publications in journals. A database, known to scientists as the Web of Science, evaluates approximately 9,300 international scientific journals on a regular basis. The Web of Science consists of the Science Citation Index (SCI), the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) and the Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI). The indexed journals are referred to as the “core journals” and they publish the majority of scientific research results. This study Publications 1992 - 2007 focuses on the following countries from the 140000 500000 Asia-Pacific research area: 120000 400000 Australia, China, 100000 Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, 80000 300000 New Zealand, Singapore, 60000 200000 South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Viet- 100000 40000 20000 nam. The first aspect we look 0 0 at is an output 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 analysis of Germany Japan China Australia South Korea Taiwan New Zealand Singapore Iran Thailand Malaysia Indonesia Vietnam USA EU-27 these and other selected countries. The development of the publication frequency in the Web of Science database will be investigated for the period 1992 to 2007. The figure above shows the number of publications by each country studied during the period under investigation. The almost exponential increase in publications by China can be clearly seen. This aspect will be taken up and discussed again in all of the following chapters of this analysis. Furthermore, this development of publication activity reveals that Japan is on a similar course to Germany in terms of the number of published scientific articles, and also that Japan is well ahead of the other countries studied. The increase in publications in the period under review from 1992 to 2007 in Japan, however, is much smaller than in China. Iran, in contrast, experienced a forty-fold increase in its output. However, it should be noted that Iran has a very low total number of publications. Number of publications Number of publications (USA and EU-27) III
