1 Legacy data Pure has been pre-populated with publications data from two sources: the University Publications database and a one-off import of data from Scopus. Data from from Web of Science will be added shortly. Data from all three sources has been included to get the best coverage of the publications by past and present Heriot-Watt employees, and to get citation information from both Web of Science and Scopus (note the process of importing and displaying citation information is not yet complete). There are around 25, 000 records currently in the system. Unfortunately not all the data is of high quality, and duplicate records will exist. We are asking academic staff (personal users) to quality check the imported sources. If your data is not in Pure, then you can add the data using one of the three methods below. If you have a lot of data in pdf, or Word or Excel file format, then please contact your Research Administrator, or Linda Kerr, l.kerr@hw.ac.uk New members of staff should manually add or import details of their previously published papers which are not in the system. What should be deposited in Pure? Details of publications/research outputs Research output is defined as anything which results from the research process, with the emphasis on materials which will be considered for REF2014. Pure can store details of published articles, books, book chapters, conference proceedings, conference papers, reports etc. and of non-textual formats, such as exhibitions, digital or visual formats, or software. Files can be uploaded to Pure the full-text of publications (copyright permitting), images, video files etc. At this stage, Pure is not being used to store teaching materials. If you are unsure if something should be entered into Pure, contact Paul Thompson, p.j.thompson@hw.ac.uk Details of activities Awards, Conference participation, External academic engagement, Editorial work or peer review of publications, Business and community, Public engagement and outreach Impact statements These are documents which record details that can be used in statement of impact given to funders. The priority is to include all publications published post-january 2008, but the aim is to create a research publications database which has a comprehensive record of the University s research output. You can link different elements in Pure eg publications to awards and to impact. Personal User Guide : adding content to Pure 1

2 Adding Publications/Research Outputs You can add details of publications in the following ways: Manual input Import from an online source, including Web of Science, arxiv, PubMed, JournalTocs Import from a BibTex or RIS file. If you have lists of publications in other formats, please contact your Research Administrator, or Linda Kerr, l.kerr@hw.ac.uk. You can also set up Pure to scan the online sources for new publications. Full-text publications can be uploaded/imported (copyright permitting). The Pure system links to the Sherpa/Romeo databases which contain details of copyright permissions for individual journals/publishers.
