  • 1.  Publish or Perish: citation metrics using Google Scholar

    ****Apologies for cross postings****

    Dear all,

    I thought many of you might be interested in Publish or Perish. Publish
    or Perish is a software program that retrieves and analyzes academic
    citations, using Google Scholar (http://www.harzing.com/pop.htm).

    The programme should be useful for academics preparing for confirmation,
    tenure, promotion or job applications. The advantages of using Google
    Scholar instead of ISI Thomson data are explained in detail at:
    http://www.harzing.com/pop_gs.htm

    The choice for Google Scholar is particularly relevant for IB/IM
    scholars as many good journals in our field are not ISI listed and hence
    citations in these journals are not counted by ISI.

    My website also includes two further white papers on this topic:
    * Reflections on the h-index http://www.harzing.com/pop_hindex.htm
    * Reflections on norms for the h-index and related indices http://www.harzing.com/pop_norm.htm

    Finally, Publish or Perish includes a detailed help file with search
    tips and additional information about the citation metrics. The help
    file is now also available online:
    http://www.harzing.com/pophelp/0000-welcome.htm

    If you have any user feedback, please do not hesitate to contact me at
    pop@harzing.com.

    Best wishes,
