a research project…
Research Data
Management
• Range of practices through which research
outputs are distributed online, free of cost or
other access barriers.
Open Access
• Includes the process of creating and evaluating
scholarly content, disseminating it to the
scholarly community ...
Scholarly Publishing
• Research impact is often measured using
quantitative methods such as citation
counts, the h-index, and
journal impact factors.

21. Impact

23. To fulfil Our academic requirements we are
writing a research papers, project reports and
thesis etc
For writing any paper, number of sources
on the same subject is consulted and help
is taken from many of them.
When any information is used in the process
of writing, it becomes important to mention
from where the information has been taken.

30. Purpose of References
To furnish
complete
information of a
document
To provide ordered
arrangement of
complete
bibliographical
details
To support any
statement made in
the work which
adds to the
authenticity of the
work.

31. Why to provide Bibliographical
References
Credit to
earlier work Showing
awareness of
work already
done
Validate a point,
Explain

Provide cross
references
Acknowledge a
direct quotation
Paying tributes
to earlier
pioneers

32. What is RMS ?
• Citation of any research work is an integral part.
• Collecting, reading, managing and inserting citation is time
consuming task.
• We come across lot of publication which are relevant to our
research area.
• However, it is bit difficult for us to remember which research
work we had refered for our ongoing research.
• Reference Management System allows researchers to
collect, organize and insert citations while writng research
report.

33. Need of Reference Management
Software
 Enhance the Presentation and citation of Research
 To give due credit to authors
 Avoid plagiarism
 Time saving tool for writing research paper

37. Some Style Manuals
 Chicago Style Manual
 MLA Style Manual and Guide to scholarly Publishing
 ACS Style Guide: Effective Communication of scientific
information
 AIP Style Manual. (American Institute of Physics)
 American Political Science Association Committee on
Publications . Style Manual for Political Science .

body of text.

41. Other functions of Reference Management
Software's:
 Import citations from bibliographic databases
and websites
 Gather metadata from PDF files
 Allow organization of citations within the RM
database
 Allow annotation of citations
 Allow sharing of the RM database or portions
thereof with colleagues
 Allow data interchange with other RM products
through standard metadata formats (e.g., RIS,
BibTeX)
 Produce formatted citations in a variety of styles
 Work with word processing software to facilitate
in-text citation.

114. To Sum-up
 Each cited BR carries a message to the
scholars.
 Hence references ought to be
sufficiently complete.
 For authentication of one’s research
output and to avoid plagiarism which
can cause adverse consequences , use
the RMT .
 You should create your profiles for
boosting research visibility .

115.  Academic libraries should take advantage of the
opportunities presented by technological advances
to improve their research support services.
 Librarians should increase skills required for
linking researchers to a wide range of digital
resources, and helping them make choices among
materials available in the public domain on the
Internet
 There should be Librarian-researcher partnerships
to support research.
 Universities management should take the issue of
library funding as critical for the development and
management of research support services.

Let’s pray
for each
other to
have a
