About the Scientific Library of PRMU
The Scientific Library was founded on June 14, 1932. The primary collection was formed from publications of departments and books donated by the library of Nizhny Novgorod State University named after N.I. Lobachevsky and rich private collections of doctors of the city.The first director was V.A. Druzhkina. A great contribution to the development of the library was made by highly qualified directors E.A. Chugunova, T.F. Kotova, N.G. Krayushkina. Since 2018, the library has been headed by Gayane Yurikovna Semina, who has a great work experience in this particular library: from librarian to director.
The library provides information support for the educational process and research activities of the University. The staff and students can use the Digital Library of PRMU, which includes full-text collections of the medical literature, including the foreign one. Virtual services are being introduced and they allow you to provide the necessary documents remotely and promptly.
Comfortable conditions have been created for servicing, holding mass events, and independent work of users. Unique multimedia presentations and reviews on the history of medicine are being developed, guided tours of the library collections are being conducted. Training sessions help to navigate the flow of professional information, to choose the best ways to work with it. The library is an open platform focused on the future of Russian medical science.
Over its long history, the Library has moved more than once, priorities in maintenance and staffing have changed. Only the employees remained unchanged. Like 90 years ago, these are intelligent and responsive women who are always ready to help their beloved readers!

A citation index is a universally accepted measure in the scientific world for assessing the significance of the work of a researcher or research team. It is also a bibliographic database that indexes references listed in the bibliographies of scientific publications and provides quantitative metrics based on these citations (such as total citation count, Hirsch index, etc.). The value of a citation index is determined by the number of citations a publication or an author receives in other sources.
The Hirsch index (h-index) is a scientometric indicator proposed in 2005 by Jorge Hirsch from the University of California, San Diego. The h-index is a quantitative measure of a scientist's productivity and citation impact, based on the number of their publications and the citations those publications receive. The index is calculated based on the distribution of citations for a given researcher's work.
A scientist has an index *h* if *h* of their Np papers have at least *h* citations each, and the other (Np – h) papers have no more than *h* citations each.
The Impact Factor (IF) is a numerical indicator of a scientific journal's importance. It is calculated as the ratio of the number of citations in a given year to articles published in that journal during the two preceding years, to the total number of "citable items" (articles, reviews, etc.) published in that journal during the same two-year period. Thus, the Impact Factor measures the frequency with which the "average article" in a journal has been cited.
The Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) is a national information and analytical system that accumulates over 2 million publications by Russian authors, as well as information on citations of these publications from more than 3,000 Russian journals. It is designed not only to provide prompt access to current bibliographic information for scientific research but also serves as a powerful tool for evaluating the performance and effectiveness of research organizations, individual scientists, the quality of scientific journals, etc.
Access to RSCI is free via the Scientific Electronic Library eLIBRARY.ru.
On the global scientific information market, two major international citation indexes are represented:
-
Web of Science by Thomson Reuters (now Clarivate Analytics)
-
Scopus by Elsevier
Web of Science (http://ip-science.thomsonreuters.com/mjl) – developed by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI, USA), owned by Thomson Reuters. It includes six thematic indexes. It provides researchers and specialists with information across all fields of knowledge from 8,700 authoritative scientific journals, 12,000 conference proceedings held annually, and over 4,400 websites.
Web of Science includes:
-
Science Citation Index Expanded (Natural Sciences database) – coverage from 1988 to present; covers natural sciences, indexes over 8,700 journals.
-
Social Sciences Citation Index – coverage from 1988 to present; covers social sciences, indexes over 3,200 journals.
-
Arts & Humanities Citation Index – coverage from 1988 to present; indexes over 1,800 journals.
Scopus (http://www.scopus.com) – is the world's largest unified abstract and citation database, indexing over 25,000 titles of scientific, technical, and medical journals from approximately 7,000 international publishers. The daily updated Scopus database includes records dating back to the first volume, first issue of leading scientific publishers' journals.
