Links to your ForskDok-publications

 

The 1st. of February 2007, the old bibsys wgate-interface was faced out. Accordingly, a number of links to publications registered in ForskDok became useless. Luckily the newer bibsys ASK can do the same task. How to do this linking is the subject of this walkthrough.


  1. The first thing to do is to point your browser to the address http://ask.bibsys.no. This page is supposed to appear:



    Please notice that we have unmarked the boxes from the library base and Norges handelshøyskole, but marked the box next to ForskDok publications. Of course you are free to alsp use the project-base, but we normally do not use this at NHH. When the ticking of boxes seem correct, click the button Search selected sources.
     
  2. Your screen will look something like this:



    We have chosen the tab for advanced search. You'll have to use this for the linking-operation. Gracefully skip the search-areas in the upper section of the page, and concentrate on the bottom half of the screen. Notice that we have chosen Norges handelshøyskole from the drop-down menu. We want to search only this institution's archive. As soon as the correct institution is selected, you can further narrow the scope by selecting the different departments at the school. If all your publications are registered at the same department, the narrower scope is OK.
     
  3. If you wish to link all the ForskDok-publications with you as author (or co-author) you can skip this point, ang continue to point 4 below. If you wish to link only a selection of your registered publications, ie the ones with high rankings, the scientifical ones etc., you'll have to continue selecting from the menus:



    In this example we have chosen the department of Finance and Management Science, and only focused on articles in scientific journals. When these selections are done - it is of course possible to select otherwise - it's time to launch the search.
     
  4. Untill this point, all the actions are being done in order to minimize the amount of noise in our search result. The search in itself is fairly common:

    As an example we have chosen the journal publications of Knut Boye, published between 2005 and 2006. We have not chosen to limit the search to only the scientific publications. Further we have selected to include all languages, and we have opted for 20 hits per page. It is only the search results that will show in the final list. If you wish to show the publications for a single year, it is only a matter of writing for instance 2006-2006 in the year-field.
     
  5. The final list resulting from the search can look like the one below, or it could be very long, depending on which fields you have chosen to include.



    What's left is to save the URI generated by bibsys when displaying the search results. You will find it in your browser's address-bar. Mark the address (it could be very long) and copy it (ctrl + c on your keyboard). This copied URL is what you use as a direct link to your publications on your institution's webpage, or in your private CV.
    / For the current example, the URL looks like this: http://ask.bibsys.no/ask/action/result?cmd=&kilde=forskpub&fid=forfatter&term=boye%2Cknut&op=and&fid=bd&term=&fdinst=07000000&fduinst=07000000&hpubform=a&arstall=2005-2006&sprak=&sortering=sortdate-&treffPrSide=20. As you see, it's not very easy on the eye, but then again - no one is supposed to see it :-)

If you have any "special needs" when showing a certain list, for instance all english publications, published in scientific journals in the year 2004 and the newest norwegian textbooks from 2006, this is also possible. You'll have to use the special search and create regular expressions to define exactly which publications to search. The instructions for doing this falls outside the scope of these instrucions, but feel free to contact Fredrik Kavli at the library to get some assistance.
