Digital Library websites plays an important role in dissemination of information of the institution and library resources. It acts as a trustworthy mirror of the institute. To evaluate the library website performance webometrics tools and indicators are required. The aim of the present research is study the webometrics of Digital Libraries of Iranian Universities of Medical Sciences on the Web to determine the amount of the visibility a website and web pages. The URL and link of 42 digital library website is obtained directly by visiting the university's website. To extract the number of indexed web pages (size), rich files have used the Google search engine Also, to extract the number of scientific resources retrieved have used the Google Scholar search engine. To calculate and obtain the number of links received have used the MOZ search engine. Generally, the results indicated that the website of Iranian digital libraries did not have a good performance in term of webometric indexes, and none of them were not rated at all indexes, only some of the websites mentioned in one or two indicators.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze key performance indicators using a balanced scorecard in the nursing department of hospitals, and to find useful suggestions for future research. Methods: Before starting the literature search clear inclusion and exclusion criteria were determined. After that, were viewed 41 studies from the RISS, KISS, National assembly library, and NDSLDB. Data were collected on October 17, 2013. Researchers developed an analytic framework for the literature review using a balanced score card development process and construction steps of previous studies. This framework had 10 steps related to the balanced score card development process. Results: A total of 10 studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. We identified 234 key performance indicators for the nursing department. The average number was 6.6 in finance perspective, 8.6 in perspective, 11.9 in internal process perspective, and 6.2 in learning and growth perspective. We found that 173 indicators had been cited only once. 61 indicators were cited over twice. Further, 8 indicators employed different perspectives on different studies. Conclusion: The results of the present study summarize useful information on recent trends on key performance indicators using a balanced score card in the nursing department of hospitals. These results will help develop key performance indicators and provide directions for future research.

This study recommends the evaluation measures and indicators to evaluate the operations and performance of each Foreign Research Information Centers (FRIC) established to support the effective and efficient use of the foreign academic journals at the national level. The indicators are comprised by 3 major sections, subdivided into 35 sub-indexes. Each of indicators is scored according to the weights derived from the AHP survey to the related researchers and the practitioners. As a result, total score of 1,000 is distributed to 3 major sections of operational strategy section (190), operational systems section (440), and operational outcomes (370). Based on the evaluation indicators, measure dictionary is developed, followed by preliminary tests both by the parent organization and by each centers, in order to check the feasibility of the measurement.

The aim of this study was to investigate and analyze the changes in inputs and outputs for information-poor in public libraries to eliminate the digital divide. The survey and analysis was utilized indicators for the information-poor shown in library statistics. And through the analysis of statistical indicators, it examined the changing patterns of the elements that each library are inputted to eliminating the digital divide. As a result, it revealed problems such as regression of facilities for the aged and disabled, continuous decrease in the number of special materials for disabled person, and reduction of service users and budget for information-poor. In order to solve this problem and to achieve the desired performance for eliminating the digital divide. it's required the budget increase and strong policies for information-poor.

This study aims to develop standard indicators and methodology for college & university libraries' evaluation based on the agreement among various stake-holders, then suggests a new evaluation system. For the goal, we identify purposes and required conditions, then develop indicators for the evaluation through open-ended interviews, a questionnaire survey, and focus group for reaching an agreement on the included indicators among the stake-holders, finally we construct the overall evaluation structure and weighting system. The overall structure is developed based on process-centered approach, then both the internal and functional viewpoint and external and service-oriented viewpoint are considered. The weighting system is based on the balance among the process categories, such as resources, process, and output elements. Additionally, we suggest methodology for the evaluation and annual improvement process for ongoing improvement of the evaluation system. We expect that the results from this study will contribute not only to the evaluation activities but also to active discussions on library performance and its predictor factors.

The University libraries need to develop the balanced scorecard concerning general management in order to measure the total performance of the organization that measure not only quantity measurement based on resources and quality measurement based on information services but also effectiveness of resource utilization, efficiency ability providing the services and potential capability of the members adopting the diverse changes flexibility as organic organization under the rapidly changing circumstances nowadays. This study developed the BSC model into the four perspectives such as customer, resource, internal process, learning and growing modifying BSC model developed by Kaplan and Norton to fit university libraries as nonprofit organization and developed the strategic map and performance measurement indicators on the strategy of each perspective. Ultimately, this study tried to provide an integrated strategic management indicators providing comprehensive picture of university libraries from strategic plan to performance applying the BSC linking strategic plan.

We investigated how bibliometric indicators such as publication count and citation count affect the assessment of research performance by computing various bibliometric scores of the works of Korean LIS faculty members and comparing the rankings by those scores. For the study data, we used the publication and citation data of 159 tenure-track faculty members of Library and Information Science departments in 34 Korean universities. The study results showed correlation between publication count and citation count for authors with many publications but the opposite evidence for authors with few publications. The study results suggest that as authors publish more and more work, citations to their work tend to increase along with publication count. However, for junior faculty members who have not yet accumulated enough publications, citations to their work are of great importance in assessing their research performance. The study data also showed that there are marked differences in the magnitude of citations between papers published in Korean journals and papers published in international journals.
