“Bibliometrics is an ideal field for academic librarians to develop and provide innovative services for both academic and administrative university staff. In so doing, librarians make sure to take an active part in the development of new strategies and in fostering innovation. Qualitative processes like peer-review need to be validated and are therefore increasingly complemented by quantitative methods like bibliometrics. Librarians are predestined to fill this role and strengthen their on-campus position.”
