Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of a variety of national and regional practices for registering and tracking the publication activity of researches and their citation indicators in dif­ferent countries and regions. The case study is based on the necessity of establishing objective scientometric indicators that are independent from the research area, region, language, and place of publication. A study of twelve national and regional research information systems has been conducted. The article presents the original research methodology, as well as a developed system or criteria used in performing a compara­tive analysis of foreign practices. The results of this analysis of foreign practices are used as the basis of researching and developing a national platform used for access and analysis of Bul­garian scientific information. (The article is a re­sult of the project Design and Development of a Prototype of the Information System “Citation Index of Publications by Bulgarian Authors (So­cial Sciences)†(Contract № DN 15 / 11.12.2017), funded by the National Science Fund of Bulgaria (Ministry of Education and Science).)
