Abstract

Ovaj završni rad pisan je u svrhu upoznavanja zainteresirane publike s pojmom i osnovnim teorijskim značajkama bibliometrije te osnovama korištenja i usporednim opisom dva bibliometrijska alata BibExcel-a SciMAT-a. Cilj rada biti će sažeti široku teorijsku tematiku u jednu konciznu i kompaktnu cjelinu koja će uz usporedni opis dvaju navedenih alata dati svim zainteresiranima mogućnost upoznavanja sa disciplinom bibiliometrije te mogućnost odabira korištenja jednog od dvaju navedenih bibliometrijskih alata temeljem usporednog opisa istih. Prvi, teorijski dio, objasniti će povijesni razvoj bibliometrije te će dati uvid u tri najvažnija bibliometrijska zakona. Završni dio teorijskog dijela objasniti će pojmove faktora odjeka i indeksa brzine citiranja. Drugi, praktični dio završnog rada, odnositi će se na usporedni opis dvaju bibliometrijskih alata, BibExcel-a i SciMAT-a, koji će se sastojati od prikaza načina instalacije navedenih alata na samo računalo, pojašnjenja koliko ih je lako ili teško koristiti, na kojim se tehnologijama koriste, pojašnjenja imaju li detaljne i koliko kvalitetne upute za korištenje, vizualne usporedbe navedenih alata te općenitih prednosti i nedostataka jednog i drugog alata. Na ovaj način, uz teorijski i praktični dio završnog rada, omogućiti ćemo zainteresiranoj publici upoznavanje s teorijom discipline bibliometrije te, kroz usporedbu dvaju navedenih bibliometrijskih alata, mogućnost odabira jednog od njih, ukoliko će im u budućnosti zatrebati u svrhu bibliometrijske analize nekoga od traženih pojmova.

Abstract (english)

This paper was written for the purpose of introducing the public with the concept and the basic theoretical features of bibliometry and the basics of use and comparative description of two bibliometric tools, BibExcel and SciMAT. The aim of this paper will be to summarize the broad theoretical knowledge into a concise and compact entirety that will provide intrested students with a comparative description of those two tools mentioned above and the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the discipline of bibliometry giving them the possibility of choosing one of two bibliometric tools based on their comparative description. The first, theoretical part of the paper will explain the historical development of bibliometry and provide insight into the three most important bibliometric laws. Final stage of the theoretical part of this paper will explain the terms of impact factor and citation rate index. The second, practical part of this paper will refer to a comparative description of two bibliometric tools, BibExcel and SciMAT, which will consist of describing how to install those tools on a computer and explaining of how easy or difficult it is to use them and which tehnologies are they based on and clarifying whether they have or not detailed user manuals. Also, this part of the paper will offer visual comparisons of those tools and the general advantages and disadvantages of one and the other. In this way, with the theoretical and the practical part of this paper we will enable the interested audience to get acquainted with the theory of bibliometrics and by comparing the two bibliometric tools listed above give the possibility of selecting one of them if in the future bibliometric analysis of some required terms will be needed.
