Abstract
Research reliability, innovation policy as requirements of program Horizon 2020 provoke processes of self-assessment, monitoring, result measurement including ethic and social impact. This article proposes matrix for competences’ assessment and quality improvement of authors of research papers. The model offers interactive tools for: information search, evaluation, investigation and management of research reports. It integrates interactive tool for training of publishers, authors, students or successful publishing in internationally influential scholarly journals. The model is oriented towards the target groups of researchers – professors, associate professors, assistants, graduate students, research teams from educational and cultural institutions The methodology consists of: (1) interdisciplinary science metrics’ modeling of the processes of distribution of research papers in scholar publications integrated in system of impact improvement of scientific publications; (2) informing, consulting, training of the target groups. The projected result is to obtain measurement and comparison of research based on the implementation of the model.

An example of the use of such a model is STAR METRICS, USA, which measures the impact and outcome of investment in research, innovation and competitiveness [2]. Within Europe, 2020 Euevalnet platform is used (European RTD Evaluation Network, 1997) [3], which allows sharing of information and best practices regarding methodology, use of indicators and impact analytics of the research.

SULSIT is the organization that executes the project and secures the necessary conditions for its successful result. The capacity of the scientific team in the scientific fields of the project is the strongest one in Bulgaria, because it combines the research and the scientific-applied contribution of the habilitated colleagues in the field of science metrics and information sciences and policies, with their international reputation justified by formal and non-formal groups from all over the world – universities, associations, networks etc. Representatives of Thomson Reuters, Elsevier, Springer, Emerald and other foreign publishers with titles with impact factor active in the Bulgarian market are in long-term dialog with Prof. Dsc Yankova, Prof. DSc Denchev, Prof. Dr. Peteva, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Vasileva, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Stancheva. In this way current information about new products in the field of academic publishing and the science metrics is maintained. It is planned to organize scientific consultations within the colleagues from the Faculty of Library Studies and Cultural Heritage, to receive instructions regarding development of European policies in the field of science and innovation, as well as from MES, Directorate “Science” and from the Representative Office of the EC in Bulgaria.
