TIRANA, June 27/ATA/ The Academy of Sciences of Albania has successfully completed the training and testing process of information specialists, as part of the strategy for improving the scientific infrastructure and increasing transparency of academic research in the country.
The Academy of Sciences said that this process, organized through the Center for the Coordination and Dissemination of Scientific Information, has resulted in the certification and provision of licenses for the use of the ECRIS.AL and COBISS.AL platforms – two key systems for the management and evaluation of scientific activity in Albania.
The licensed specialists, including the staff of the Scientific Library of the Academy of Sciences, will use these platforms for the digitization of researchers’ research activities, the management of online scientific bibliographies, the evaluation of research results, as well as for the promotion and provision of wide access to scientific outputs.
This initiative constitutes an important step towards the full digitalization of scientific information and the integration of Albania into international research networks, enabling involvement in cooperation projects and open access to global knowledge.
The project is the result of inter-institutional cooperation for the development of digital infrastructure in the field of science and information technology. In the future, the Academy of Sciences will hold further training and activities to build the professional capacities of specialists and to promote the widespread use of digital platforms in academic and research institutions in the country. /a.f/p.s./
