Detection of Information Requirements of Researchers Vadim Nikolaevich Using Bibliometric Analyses to Gureyev, Nikolai Identify Target Journals Alekseevich Mazov ABSTRACT Bibliometric analyses were used to identify journals that are representative of the authors’ research institutes. Methods to semiautomatically collect data for an institute’s publications and which journals they cite are described. Citation analyses of lists of articles and their citations can help librarians to quickly identify the preferred journals in terms of the number of publications, and the most frequently cited journals. Librarians can use these data to generate a list of journals that an institute should subscribe to. BACKGROUND Recent developments in information technology have had a significant impact on the research activities of scientific libraries. Such tools have provided new insights into the workload and duties of librarians in research libraries. In the present study, we performed bibliometric analyses to determine the information needs of researchers, and to determine whether they are satisfied with the journal subscriptions available at their institutes. Such analyses are important because of limited funding for subscriptions, increases in the cost of electronic resources, and the publication of new journals, especially open-access journals. Bibliometric analyses are more accessible and less labor-intensive when using specially designed web services and software. Several databases of citation data are accessible online. The leading publishers of these databases, including Thomson Reuters and Elsevier, promote their products such as the Web of Science (WoS)
