The ITAR system – Import from external sources to FRIDA, the Norwegian national CRIS

1. The ITAR system – Import from external sources to FRIDA, the Norwegian national CRIS Tor Øyvind Fosse University of Bergen Norway EuroCris, Vienna, 2. November 2007

2. Ministry funding

3. ITAR – import from ISI • Ministryof Education and Research (Kunnskapsdepartementet) decided to buy all Norwegian data from ISI Web of Knowledge (Thomson Corporation). • Start in 2004. • For all Norwegian Universities and University Colleges. • Relative amount of UoB-authors and two scientific levels – 20% on level 2 weighted x3. • Each publication point worth 5200€ (in 2006).

4. Why? • To ensure that all scientific articles are entered, and correctly, into the CRIS’es (Frida and Forskdok) • To get better data quality: • Author affiliation. Names and numbers. • Pre-categorized (also non-scientific material). • Journal (right name, year, volume). • Title. • Publishing year.

5. How? • Data from ISI are rather unstructered. • Have to be ”washed” and then given to the correct institutions- • Manual validation of authors (by us, institutes or author). • Consult each journal article. ISI only suggests addresses, not 1:1 relationship between author and address.

6. Validation • Automatic search for existing post in Frida, if no hit, a manual search is done. Connecting, or a new entry. • ITAR gives names and initials of authors. • Validator goes to the source (article) and search for authors in the author register in Frida. • Enters addresses according to the addresses given in the article (address principle). Address from register in Frida. • Adds other information that may be missing (issue, page numbers). • Additional information added later (DOI number, scientific dicipline. • Mark the finished post as good for reporting.

11. The future • Books and chapters are also coming into ITAR (by the end of the year). Pre-categorized, and given addresses by University librarians in the library base BIBSYS, and imported from there. • ISI are providing more, and better, data. Full names, DOI, and some day maybe 1:1 addresses?

12. Thank you very much for your patience. Tor Øyvind Fosse University of Bergen Norway EuroCris, Vienna, 2. November 2007
