The KTH publication database DiVA

Everything published by KTH researchers should be registered, according to KTH policy (https://www.kth.se/polopoly_fs/1.268323!/Menu/general/column-content/attachment/publ.policy.pdf)

The department of Publication Infrastructure at KTHB regularly imports records from Web of Science and Scopus for KTH researchers.

Publications not covered by these sources should be registered by the researchers themselves. The records are reviewed by the department of Publication Infrastructure.

The KTH publication database DiVA contains:

Ca 78 000 records, ca 16 300 of which in full-text

Ca 68 000 research publications, ca 8 300 of which in full-text

Ca 10 000 student theses, ca 8 000 of which in full-text

DiVA can be used for

Marketing KTH research Searching for publications by KTH researchers Forming a basis for internal statistics and a data source

for bibliometric studies Exporting records to SwePub, a national search portal for

scientific publishing at Swedish universities Serving as a data source for lists of publications, for

example for the annual reports Generating reference lists Exporting data to search engines such as Google Self archiving of scientific publications

Important when registering in DiVA

Avoid duplicate records• Search DiVA (kth.diva-portal.org ) before registering a new record.

KTH-id• KTH-id must be registered in the field “Local User ID” in DiVA (KTH-

id is a unique eight character id, for example u1r4nbk6, that all employees have and that can be found on each employee’s profile page.

• KTH-id should be registered for all KTH-affiliated authors of a publication. This is regardless of whether the publication has been produced during the period the author has been employed at KTH or not.

ORCID iD

Important when registering in DiVA

Organisational affiliation• Register organisational affiliation, i.e. the correct school, department, centre etc.,

for all authors that were affiliated with KTH at the time the publication was produced.

• The organisation registered should correspond to the author’s affiliation at the time when the publication was produced.

• An author can register several affiliations for the same publication, e.g. both a department and a centre. If a centre is registered it should be supplemented with the department where the researcher is employed.

Peer review• Register if the publication is peer reviewed or not. The following rules apply:• Peer review refers to the review of a complete, published text.• The fact that a journal applies peer review does not automatically imply that all

publications in the journal should be regarded as peer reviewed.• Peer review of a book or a part of an anthology means that the review has been

carried out by independent reviewers, not by the editors of the book alone.
