NTL\u2019s primary public offering is ROSA P, the Repository and Open Science Access Portal. An open access repository hosted by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), ROSA P is designated as the full-text archive for the results of USDOT-funded research under its public access plan. Starting in 2014, NTL worked closely with CDC\u2019s team on content migration, training, and the successful move to production. NTL staff re-architected repository metadata to meet Public Access requirements and implemented digital data curation for US DOT funded research results, including the application of digital object identifiers (DOI). Collections in ROSA P are available without restriction to transportation researchers, statistical organizations, the media, and the public. ROSA P makes NTL\u2019s digital collections findable and accessible to users, improves search and discovery, and links data to publications. Additionally, NTL digital resources have improved exposure through specialized search services like Google Scholar.131

NTL\u2019s primary public offering is ROSA P, the Repository and Open Science Access Portal. In addition to functioning as the full-text archive for results of USDOT-funded research, ROSA P is also home to historic transportation collections. Legacy print materials having historic, technical, or national significance are migrated to digital formats. Historic collections include copies of United States Civil Aeronautics Board Aircraft Accident Reports dating from 1934 to 1965, documents gathered and digitized in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Urban Mass Transportation Act, Civil Aeronautics Manuals, and the papers of Turner, Fairbank and MacDonald. Collections in ROSA P are publicly available without restriction and are accessible by Google, Google Scholar, WorldCat, Bing, and Science.gov.131

The Repository and Open Science Access Portal (ROSA P) is the designated institutional repository for research funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation under the USDOT Public Access Plan. Managed by the National Transportation Library (NTL), this repository plays a crucial role in the collection, management, and preservation of research outputs. As part of NTL\u2019s efforts to establish ROSA P as a Trustworthy Repository, this project focused on implementing data visualization software to create a dashboard to consolidate metrics on users and usage, including key metrics such as aggregated user location, download counts, and item resource type. The visualization provides a prototype of a tool that could be used for internal and external library assessment.104
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
