- Abstract
- Discusses the need for standardization in bibliometric research and technology in the context of failing communication within the scientific community, the unsatisfactory impact of bibliometric research outside the community and the observed incompatibility of bibliometric indicators produced by different institutes. The development of bibliometric standards is necessary to improve the reliability of bibliometric results, to guarantee the validity of bibliometric methods and to make bibliometric data compatible. Raises both conceptual and technical questions. Illustrates consequences of lacking standards by typical examples. Finally, proposes particular topics for standardization based on experiments at the Information Science and Scientometrics Research Unit, Hungary
