The Scientific Library offers free access to Scopus database resources
The Ministry of Education and Science has ensured the connection of more than 100 Ukrainian universities and research institutions to the Ministry of Education and Science to the international scientific databases Scopus and Web of Science at the expense of the state budget.
"In Ukraine, only a few of the largest higher educational establishments could afford access to these resources at their own expense. The MES decided to change this situation and financially support a centralized subscription to enable as many scientists as possible to use such databases. The most popular in the scientific world are Web of Science and Scopus, which have become not just the bases of scientific publications and publications, but also information platforms that have many additional useful analytical services. It really is necessary for scientists to have high-quality resources for the search and analysis of information ", - said director of the department of scientific and technical development of the Ministry of Education and Science Dmitry Cheberkus.
"We proceeded from the necessity of reaching as many scholars: students, post-graduate scientific and pedagogical workers. And, in order to maximize the audience of users, have set a special additional condition. The institution having access has to provide it in the computer halls of its libraries to all interested persons - regardless of which institutions and institutions they represent ", - said the head of the department. He added that, in addition to providing access to the Elsevier (Scopus) and Clarivate Analytics (Web of Science) services companies, they agreed to hold seminars and trainings in Kyiv and regions, at the request of the Ministry of Education and Science. They will discuss how to improve the publication activity and quality of scientific articles, search for scientific publications for publications, and plan a scientific career. Additionally, these companies will streamline the profiles of Ukrainian universities and research institutions in the bases, which will allow to some extent increase their ratings and visibility on the world scientific map.
