Background/Purpose: the most important goal of the present dissertation is the designing of the top authors’ scientific productivity model so as to achieve a combined set of quantitative and qualitative indicators and items influencing the scientific productivity and take a step towards the improvement of the scientific productivity’s evaluation.Methodology: the present study has been conducted based on a mixed (quantitative-qualitative) method; the qualitative section uses the ideas and notions of the experts in the scientific productivity domain and the quantitative section deals with the application of the statistical tests and scientometrics’ indicators. Two statistical populations have taken part in the present study: 12 domestic and foreign experts in the scientific productivity field; 235 highly cited authors from around the globe. The study data have been collected using checklist, questionnaires and Clarivate Analytics-Web Of Science database. To analyze the data, SPSS 19 and LISREL 8 were used. The scientific productivity model has been verified based on the experts’ ideas in the population of the top authors using second order confirmatory factor analysis.Findings: the present study’s findings indicate that the scientific productivity model based on the experts’ notions in population of the studied top authors features a favorable goodness of fit. Considering the factor loads in the confirmatory factor analysis, the “bibliometrics component” with a factor load of 1, the “individual component” with a factor load of 0.69 and the “organizational component” with a factor load of 0.63 in the population of highly cited authors are influential in the scientific productivity model. Discussion and Conclusion: the findings of the present study indicate that a collection of organizational, individual and bibliometric factors influence the scientific productivity of the top authors and the tri-component model features a favorable goodness of fit. Combination of the quantitative and qualitative items can offer a more thorough image of the status of the individuals’ scientific productivity; the items offered in this model can be employed as solution by the individuals and organizations for enhancing scientific productivity.

Purpose: This paper aims at determining appropriate performance indicators based on the world’s national libraries and related ISOs. They are also chosen according to the NLAI’s experts comments based on Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM).Methodology: The present research is applied to the research purpose and uses a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. The statistical society includes 2 categories: first, performance indicators of the world's national libraries (Library of Congress, British Library, National Library of Australia, National Library of Spain, Swiss National Library, Library and Archives Canada, National Library of France, and National Diet Library) adopted via emails to their national libraries.The second is through 14 top level managers of NLAI selected by a purposeful sampling. The research tool to conduct a Fuzzy Delphi technique involve a checklist whose validity were recognized according to expert's opinion. The final checklist includes two categories of general and specialized questions. General questions include the demographic characteristics of the respondents. These questions include gender, age, organizational status, work experience, and level of education. Specialized questions that are the main part of the checklist and include 192 performance indicators in 11 dimensions (Building the national collection, Making the services accessible: Cataloguing, Making the services accessible: Quick and easy access, Making the services accessible: Usage, Making the services accessible: Digitization, Offering reference services, Building potentials for development, Preserving the collection, Managing efficiently, Research, and Library Standards Development). FindingsIn this study, out of 192 indicators, 32 indicators were selected view point of NLAI expert's. In the dimension of "Building the national collection" out of 20 indicators, 3 indicators were among the performance indicators selected by the experts NLAI.In the dimension of " Making the services accessible: Cataloguing" out of 12 indicators, 2 indicators; in dimension of "Making the services accessible: Quick and easy access" out of 17 indicators, 3 indicators;in dimension of "Making the services accessible: Usage" out of 53 indicators, 6 indicators; in dimension of "Making the services accessible: Digitization" out of 21 indicators, 5 indicators were among the performance indicators selected by the experts NLAI.In dimension of "Offering reference services" out of 10 indicators, 5 indicators; In dimension of "Building potentials for development"out of 28 indicators, 3 indicators; In dimension of "Preserving the collection" out of 9 indicators, 2 indicators; In dimension of "Managing efficiently" out of 14 indicators, 3 indicators were among the performance indicators selected by the experts NLAI.Also, from the other results of this research, it can be said that in the "Research" dimension, out of a total of 4 indicators, no indicators were selected from the perspective of NLAI's experts.In the "Library Standards Development" dimension, the two tasks of cataloging standards and digital and technology standards were selected by the organization's experts.2 proposed items (Number of newly provided bibliographic data to OCLC, and New number of offerings authority data to VIAF), which was not the responsibility of the National Library's review staff, but because of its global importance. They were questioned by experts, not selected by NLAI experts.ConclusionIn this research, for the first time, the performance indicators of the national libraries of the world and the ISOs related to evaluation of performance of libraries in order to determine and select the performance indicators for NLAI were studied in a coherent manner.From the other results of this research, it can be said that among the 32 selected indicators to evaluate the performance of NLAI, a total of 8 indicators are related to the two ISOs studied (28118 and 21248); That is, 25% of the performance indicators monitored in this study are in accordance with ISO.As Maurice Line stated, "no type of library varies so much in nature, size, and types of media covered, range of acquisitions, functions and services. But what matters is that the responsibilities of national libraries can differ from country to country as they are ‘subject to political agendas which change, often more rapidly than for public or academic libraries.Accordingly, the need to develop performance indicators for national libraries according to their goals and tasks is a very serious issue. Therefore, it is suggested that NLAI use the performance indicators obtained from this study and compare the results and methods used with other national libraries to finally, with frequent reviews and monitoring, achieve a consensus on valid indicators.Finally, given that indicators are defined at the organization’s top levels organization, managers can rely on the findings of the research to appropriately use the indicators to show a clear picture of the performance of the NLAI, and also be effective in allocate resources, make plans and policies of national libraries and prevent potential costs.

Background and Objectives: Utilizing the experience of leading countries in the field of public libraries can create beneficial developments in the field of public libraries in Iran. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of implementing European Union programs related to public libraries in Iran from the perspective of Iranian public library professionals. This research is part of the commitments related to the Jean Monnet International Joint Project conducted by Allameh Tabataba'i University. The project titled “European Union Plans and Experiences for Public Libraries: Applicability for Iran." The proposal of the project was submitted by Allameh Tabataba’i University to the European Union’s Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency in the form of a Jean Monnet Programmed grant proposal. In September 2019 it was judged and announced as the sole grant winner from Iran. This project was the first joint project with the European Union in the Knowledge and Information Science disciplines in Iran. The topics studied in this research, which are based on the review of specialized texts that were identified and compiled, include changes in public library structure, organization, policies and management, library collections and selection of resources, as well as clientele and needs assessment and training.Methodology: In this survey study, 378 librarians in public libraries across the country were selected through stratified random sampling and were asked to respond to a researcher-designed questionnaire after confirming the content validity and reliability. The dimensions of the questionnaire, which was identified and compiled based on a review of specialized texts, include five areas: 1. Structure, organization, policies and management, 2. Collection and selection of resources, 3. Clientel and needs assessment, 4. Services and dissemination of information, and 5. was training. First, the questionnaire was distributed among 25 librarians and professors of Knowledge and Information Science and who were familiar with the issues of public libraries in Iran and amendments were made to it.In order to identify the main factors or structures of the questionnaire, the components related to the use of EU programs were identified using exploratory factor analysis methods. The Varimax rotation method has also been used to ensure the independence of the agents. To confirm the adequacy of the sample, KMO index (Kaiser-Mir-Olkin test) and Bartlett test were used to identify the correlation between items. In order to evaluate the fitness of the measurement model, three criteria of Cronbach's alpha coefficients, combined reliability and explained mean variance were used. In this study, the Fornell-Locker index was used to evaluate the divergent validity.Findings: In this study, 60.7% of the respondents were women and 39.3% were men. Up to (.96 %) of the respondents had a postgraduate education and were at least 31 years old. The distribution of participants in terms of work experience was in the categories of 5-10 years and 25-16 years. Iranian librarians believed that to a large extent it was possible to implement programs similar to those of the EU public libraries. Findings showed that the greatest possibility of implementing new programs related to services and information dissemination, and training. Multiple analysis of variance test showed that there was no significant difference in the scores of different domains according to age, sex and education.Discussion: It can be concluded that changes to such matters as public library collection and selection of resources, as well as clientele and needs assessment and training, services and dissemination of information are applicable in Iran. In this study, services and information dissemination obtained the highest average scores related to public libraries, which shows the growing importance of information and the need to save cost and time for users.

This paper tries to explain the reading as a social practice. Therefore, while dealing with the concept of sociology of reading, pays to read as a social practice.Research Methods: The method is analytical review.Findings: The research findings have shown that the demographic and sociological factors influence the amount and type of reading practice. The theory of social action and public readings has been used to respond to how people read..Value/originality: researcher in reading Studies used mainly three psychological, sociological and education paradigms. Two psychological and educational paradigms are dominant in reading studies and research related to lower cognitive aspect of society has been read. Less sociological aspect has been read and less sociological aspect has been addressed. Explanation Sociological act of reading not only affect the relationship between social and background factors that reading makes clear, It makes for a more comprehensive analysis of reading as a form of social interaction. Review the reading in the context of sociological theories in understanding; planning and the promotion of reading culture will be very effective.

Abstract Background and Objectives: Most of the budget and revenues of each country are spent on research and development processes in order to achieve scientific progress. But the success of each country in achieving this goal is not simply measurable. Evaluation of scientific achievements is based on two main pillars of quantity and quality. The purpose of this study is to investigate the status of citation competition of Iranian researchers' articles in national journals and identify Iranian core journals in the three groups of citation core journals, publishing core journals and Matthew core journals. Methodology: The present study was a citation analysis one. The sample was consists of scientific articles of the top five universities in Iran. The sample size includes 49328 articles that have been published in 6658 journals. Since the data of this research is taken from Scopus citation database, instead of using the impact factor index, the "journal cite score" is used to show the journal citation impact. The cite score of each journal shows the average number of citations per article over a three-year period for each journal, so it can be used as the expected value for all articles in that journal. For this purpose, in this study, to calculate the number of citations expected for each journal. In this study, core journals were divided into three groups. The first group is Publishing Core Magazines (PCJ), the second group is Citation Core Magazines (CCJ) and the third group is Matthew Core Magazines (MCJ); These are journals that contain half of Iran's articles, journals that contain half of the citations received by Iran, and journals that contain half of Matthew's citations (either positive or negative) in Iran. Findings: Researchers in the study sample have published in a total of 6658 journals, which includes a total of 49328 articles. With the condition of publishing at least ten articles from Iran in the five years under review for each journal, 994 journals remained as a collection of national journals in Iran. The number of journals in the collection of national journals of Iran (994 journal titles) is only 15% of the total journals (6658 journal titles) that Iranian researchers have selected to publish the article during the five years of study. It is noteworthy that this small percentage of journals, more than half of the articles (55.64%) and up to 70% of the total citations. This information indicates the importance of these journals and the concentration of a large number of articles and citations in a small group of journals. Among the core journals, Matthew Negative Nuclear Magazines is the largest group, accounting for 193 journals and nearly 20% of the total INJS journals. After that, the group of publishing core journals (182 journals) and citation core journals (107 journals) had the largest number of journals, respectively. Matthew Core Negative Magazines, on the other hand, have the lowest number of citations in the period under review, despite having the highest number of journals. This indicates that there are a large number of journals in the collection of national journals of Iran that have not had a proper visibility for Iranian articles. But the positive group of Matthew Core Magazines, which is the smallest group of Core Magazines, despite the very small number of magazines (only 14 titles), but accounted for approximately 11% of the total citations. The main feature of these magazines is that they have been able to occupy half of the citations of Matthew in Iranian magazines. Discussion: A review of the collections of core journals showed that more than half of the journals do not belong to any of the core groups. On the other hand, in this study, it was found that Matthew core positive journals, the journals that contain half of the citation performance of Iranian articles, are only 14 titles. Perhaps by adopting better publishing strategies and offering advice to Iranian scientists, the number of these journals can be increased. Recently, Iran has always had brilliant rankings in number of articles, so that sometimes it has even surpassed the global growth rate. However, a review of the core journals shows that these journals have not performed well in obtaining citations and credibility, and a large group of them are in the group of negative Matthew core journals (49 titles). This shows that the increase in quantity and number of articles does not necessarily lead to an increase in citation and scientific credibility. Therefore, it is better to choose solutions to increase the visibility of scientific works so that in parallel with increasing the number of articles, appropriate recognition can be received. In general, it seems that the adoption of appropriate research and publishing strategies, as well as the selection of a strong and credible journal, is necessary to improve the citation performance of Iranian articles in the field of scientific competition. Obviously, this does not happen overnight and requires the design and implementation of appropriate short-term and long-term scientific development programs. Ideally, a country magazine collection should be the most reputable collection. However, for countries with poor scientific infrastructure, this may in itself be detrimental; because the acceptance process and, consequently, the quantity of their products affects. Therefore, such systems can, as a suitable alternative, seek to find a set with more visible chances (Sotoudeh, 2011).

Background and Objectives: ‘Ba’ environments in research centers are one of the most important factors influencing research development. The success of research centers can be classified into three categories of infrastructure factors, actors, and information resources to facilitate knowledge creation in the ‘Ba’ environment. Evaluating Knowledge Creation ‘Ba’ environments which are designed and tested to evaluate the knowledge creation environment of Islamic research centers, is based on the Triple Helix Knowledge Creation Theory and the I- system used by researchers for academic and research centers. Ba’ environment in the knowledge creation process, doesn't just refer to a physical space, but includes virtual spaces based on the Internet, and more mental spaces which involve sharing experiences and ideas. Among its variables for evaluating the ‘Ba’ environment are intelligence, involvement, and imagination; and for researchers' abilities, the variables of participation and integration are used for evaluation. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge creation environment of Islamic research centers from the viewpoint of researchers and faculty members. Methodology: The present study is an applied research. The data collection method was survey. The main instrument for data collection was a questionnaire with 30 questions for 'ba' environment, seven questions for the capabilities of researchers and faculty members, and five questions for personality traits. The study population consisted of all researchers and faculty members of Iranian Islamic research Centers, who were 2328 people, from whom a sample of 330 individuals were chosen according to the Krejci-Morgan Table. Data were analyzed using the SPSS software program. Findings: The results on the ‘Ba’ environment in terms of infrastructure in intelligence Ba showed that all of the variables except the observed variable "External Electronic-knowledge resources" is in good condition. The results of the ‘Ba’ environment status from the perspective of “actors in ‘intelligence Ba’” showed that: all of the criteria except the variable "having a clear vision and strategy for the future of the situation", are good. Results on the ‘Ba’ environment in terms of “information in ‘intelligence Ba’” showed that all variable except the “Various programs for correction, evaluation, and documentation of research articles” are in good condition.Infrastructure assesses the possibility of scientific interaction in the ‘Ba’ environment. Based on the data, the level of assessment of the infrastructure of participation in the research environment is below average. Results of Data analysis for variables and Criteria showed that in ‘Ba’ environment for “actors in ‘involvement Ba’” all variables are in average level, in the ‘Ba’ environment “information in ‘involvement Ba’” all the criteria are below the average level, in the ‘Ba’ environment “infrastructure in ‘imagination Ba’” the variables are above average, in the ‘Ba’ environment “actors in ‘imagination Ba’ variables are in average level and in the ‘Ba’ environment “information in ‘imagination Ba’” the criteria in the research environment are above average. In addition, Status of ‘Ba’ environment “capabilities of researchers and faculty members” from integration and participation factors showed that different research Abilities are desirable. Furthermore, ‘Ba’ environment status results in terms of personality traits showed that: activity (curiosity, foresight) interest in working at the research environment, empathy (communication skills) interest in attending scientific and research meetings and generally sharing opinions, persistence (planning skills) perseverance on doing research work, autonomy (sense of responsibility) ability to control Feelings and doubts about completing research work, being able to comprehend, Thinking skill (logical thinking) analyzing research activities (including insights, comprehension, and memory) are in desirable level. Also, Equivalent Ph.D. scholars and researchers with more than 25 years of experience have more research activities. Discussion: Relatively appropriate actions have been taken in specific environments of Islamic research centers to facilitate the creation of knowledge, but authorities and participants can use the results of evaluating knowledge creation in such an environment to address weaknesses and improve their strengths.
