About VIRTA Publication Information Se= rvices
Ministry of Education and Culture in Finland collects publication inform= ation on scientific publications annually from 14 Finnish universities, 5 u= niversity hospital districts, 23 universities of applied sciences and 12 st= ate research institutes. In total this makes ca. 60 000 publications per ye= ar including books, journal articles, conference papers and non-scholarly p= ublications. This data has been gathered by the Ministry of Education= and Culture since 2011.
VIRTA Publication Information Service is an advanced data warehouse solu= tion to integrate institutional data at the national level that was launche= d in the spring 2016. VIRTA is a a data hub that complies bibliographic inf= ormation of all scientific publications from 54 Finnish organizations using= different local solutions for publication data collection, such as commerc= ial Current Research Information Systems (CRIS), self-made publication regi= sters, institutional publication repositories and e-forms.
VIRTA provides the higher education institutes and other research organi= zations with up-to-date comparative metadata on their own publications and = makes the data available for other services to use and produce comprehensiv= e and comparative information on publishing activity. Eventually the = VIRTA service will contain information on all the publications produced by = the Finnish research organisations, including, within reasonable limits, al= l past publications.
The publication metadata can be transferred from VIRTA to research funde= rs, publication or data repositories, infrastructure services or any other = service used by researchers via APIs. The annual data is also publicly avai= lable in Vipunen (statistical data) and for bibliographic data resea= rch.fi -service.
The near future goal is to extend the concept to other funding org= anizations as well as other services where researchers need to input data o= n their publications, such as research data services and research infrastru= cture services. VIRTA Publication Information Service is one of the metadat= a hubs of the National Research Information Hub.
